HOT And HUMID means bad news for filament, having the Bambu Lab AMS helps a lot to keep your filament protected, but there isn't much space in there for desiccant. How about we fix that in this video, and while we're at it, we're also going to find a way to make the fix universal so it doesn't only work in one condition.

I'm very happy with the X1C as well as the AMS, they've really opened up a whole new world of 3D printing options. There are however some little adjustments that can be made to make the system better. One being the way that it keeps filament dry. Those two small packets are not easy to get to, I always forget they're there and I'm not sure how much they're really doing, since my desiccant gauge was always showing that I needed to add more. So in this video we're going to use some cool design techniques to see if we can't come up with something that will keep everything Bone dry for as long as possible.

While we're at it, we can also help to weigh down some of those spools which are nearly empty to keep them in good contact with the AMS spool rollers.
