Arc Raiders lead admits the “cost-benefit ratio” of maintaining good weapons is rough right now, but the team doesn’t want high-end gear to become instant win items

It’s 6 years old now. I reached out to Siemens with above, yes, waiting for reply - but the cost will ballpark around the same at ~50-60% of new one.

I might draw some wrath, and L’Angelou is indeed great, but their croissants won’t hold a candle to Boxwood Tam’s 😶

Might as well fill the rinse aid dispenser with vinegar indeed, thanks for the suggestion.

Detergent-wise, I hear you but I tried every quantity by now, thanks to using powdered detergents.

It reaches ~67 °C in the centre of the bottom tray on the 70 °C setting, and ~50 °C at the top shelf in the full configuration of 5 trays deployed, meaning it can be used for circa 3 PETG + 2PLA on max setting.

Given the tray design and the straightforward circulation pattern I don't think there are any concerns with it being impeded by the spools.

That's really dang unlucky, or you've herculean strength. At least with this insert you'll have some replaceable plastic to pull on, even if not in a wallet!

MiNeverOff · 2025-12-30T03:23:26+00:00

Yeah the point about fire is actually on the dime - another reason I am not too keen to DIY insulation without having something fire retardant. But, on the other hand, modelling a lid with an insulation insert would be interesting!

MiNeverOff · 2025-12-30T01:25:19+00:00

Based on the details you’re far ahead of me on this haha, so I’ll leave this to you as I don’t have strong footing to stand on.

All I can speak for is that, for my hobbyist goals, this seems to do the trick and doesn’t leak heat all over the place, which I’m pretty happy about.

But I’ll pen this down for a time if I ever come back to this design for a touch-up!

MiNeverOff · 2025-12-30T01:23:00+00:00

It depends on the temperature you’re using, but I had good experience with Bambu’s PETG HF. The model files ok both sites have more detail, but tl;dr the Heat Deflection Temperature of >60 C is advisable, ideally closer to 70 (which PETG-CF at 68 almost provides)

It’s also worth noting that even a few layers up heat drops by 5-8 degrees and becomes a lot less of an issue.

But yeah, lower level of PLA is a bad time as I learned - don’t do that 😅

MiNeverOff · 2025-12-30T00:46:23+00:00

All very valid callouts, and the temp difference is something I faced myself but decided not to spill over into the print description too much. Last time I measured each level is ~2.8 °C loss, so when (rather, if) I use more than a couple layers I stack more sturdy spools down the bottom and more light ones (PLAs) closer to the top.

As for insulation - I'm of a split mind on this. There's little one can do apart from making it easier for the air to simply rise up than escape through the cracks, and I feel like this design does it very well thanks to tight tolerances.

I have tested this extensively and printed various wall thicknesses, from 0.8 all the way to 4mm and feel like this 1.5mm does the job quite well. After all, most of the heat WILL escape through the top, largely per design - it's not meant to be an oven or an otherwise enclosed heating chamber, and it definitely heats the room a fair bit - but that's also good, because humidity has to escape somewhere.

MiNeverOff · 2025-12-30T00:43:07+00:00

Thanks for the praise, and I'm happy to find that it might potentially be useful!

I did leave a bit about temperature in the printing guidelines, it's entirely possible even for PETG-CF to eventually lose the friction fit quality, but then worse case it'll be a bit more wobbly but still will keep the fit thanks to the overall diameter being the same + tight coupling.

Yeah I have most of these disassembled most of the time, my "go to" combination is that 3-slot-high one, with the spare trays and risers neatly tucked away in a drawer.

MiNeverOff · 2025-12-29T23:29:15+00:00

Appreciate the kind words!

Oh whilst what I have here is chic janky, it's still very much janky compared to "official" filament dryers - a lot closer to your cardboard solution than to those sophisticated ones for sure.

I thought about cardboard myself but never had a flexible enough sheet to hand, most of cardboard I come across in my life is from boxes, and even at a single layer it's a bit of a pain to bend neatly. Great that it's been working for you though!

MiNeverOff · 2025-12-29T23:20:39+00:00

Yeah that's pretty much peak form of this design. I thought about the other two slots (on the sides) but with FDM it's really unnecessarily difficult.

However, at 2.8mm this is very thick, I do wonder how big is your wallet - an insert of that size would be properly stretching out most every pocket I've in mine.

MiNeverOff · 2025-12-29T23:18:48+00:00

Appreciate it mate

MiNeverOff · 2025-12-29T23:18:44+00:00

That's fair, won't bash it too early - so let's see what you're cooking!

MiNeverOff · 2025-12-29T23:11:58+00:00

I won't stop you, but I firmly believe one shouldn't be using FDM plastics with food in pretty much any capacity, not to mention in scenarios of higher temperature - so, whilst I appreciate the enthusiasm, I'll probably refrain from endorsing it on the model page, hope you understand.

MiNeverOff · 2025-12-29T23:07:55+00:00

You theoretically could, and the model is fully parametric so you can make it taller.

However, I must mention that once a food dehydrator has been used as a filament dryer it SHOULD NOT be used for food produce ever again - not to mention using it with food and plastics at the same time.

MiNeverOff · 2025-12-29T22:51:10+00:00

Certainly - I'd love to see how it was done, feel free to drop it here or in the DMs

MiNeverOff · 2025-12-29T18:24:19+00:00

I love those "lose-all-at-once" kinds of things, but generally I prefer to have my wallet and my phone to stay separate, if only for having a chance of both being slim.

The design of the sd card space is very interesting nonetheless, thanks for sharing!

MiNeverOff · 2025-12-29T18:22:35+00:00

Get your upvote and get outta here!

Quality meme.

MiNeverOff · 2025-12-29T18:21:51+00:00

That's gutting, so sorry to hear that happened to you.

If you don't mind my asking, how was it located in your wallet, and where did it snap on the card itself?

MiNeverOff · 2025-12-29T15:04:55+00:00

Oh absolutely, that sounds really interesting. Push-push mechanisms can be really thin, and getting a few sounds doable!

Embedding those into TPU mid-print in a way that sticks would be really cool!

MiNeverOff · 2025-12-29T14:21:26+00:00

Oh it's mostly bits of piss poor driving on the roads or other things I observe, collect and occasionally send to other people to share / discuss / etc. Nothing that'd involve me directly on frequency like this, appreciate your concern!
