DannyMac@sh.itjust.works 1 day agoI went with gunplamark’s Ultimate Cereal Drybox too. For mine, I did his remix with cmyk’s precision single bearing rollers (printables.com/…/1339511-precision-single-bearing…) instead, which only uses two bearings instead of 4 per box. I also made myself a pegboard adapter using Sy’s pegboard pegs and a blank hanger.

Yes the CMYK precision rollers are what I switched to as well. The original rollers, even all the remixed variants to be extra wide, do not work and are a pain to use even if they did work.

That’s awesome, sounds like we made identical configurations! For the original roller, I ended up having to widen the part with the spoke 1mm so that my bearings would roll, but it seemed like such a waste to use 4 per box. It wasn’t until a few weeks later I came across cmyk’s solution. I really like it except it is a bit difficult to get a nut to interface with a screw. I think I have the knack down now. Really, I could almost see not using a screw and nut with it since it fits together so tightly, but if I didn’t do it, it would probably come apart at the worst time during a print.

I’ve printed 10 so far and haven’t used the screw/nut. It fits so tightly that I’ve snapped the plastic trying to redo one of them. So the screw seems unnecessary.
