Yeah. Those bags hardly do anything when the spool sits for months on a shelf.

HumanPenguin@feddit.uk 1 month agoI am rapidly discovering. That spools do not seem to arrive dry.
Also, desiccant will not dry a spool. It keeps the air dry and will prevent a dry spool becoming wet. With ASA, I am learning you always need to dehydrate before first use. But am hoping using desiccant and vacuum bags will limit the time needed when reusing an open spool.

They will limit, but not by as much as you’d want. Plastic bags still allow moisture to pass through even when they’re airtight. I live in a swamp, so drying is a necessity before every print.
