@Krauerking @PlasticExistence they’ll have subtly different drying profiles. Silica gel had a higher capacity but will maintain a generally higher relative humidity. Check the graph here out https://www.impakcorporation.com/desiccants
Activated alumina doesn’t appear to be as effective as molecular sieve at low humidity from a lit. search.

You should check for air leaks in the system first. When I lose Desiccant this is usually why.

P. S. Silica gel can be regenerated.

@slug @Krauerking there are some out there. Can’t say I looked to closely but I wasn’t terribly impressed.

@Krauerking my opinion is no. For many things you can find a model on line. Much of the challenge can be getting the printer to work as you wish, so modelling might not be first on the to do list.

@WolfLink @papalonian yeah, something like this but you might try. MS 3D Builder is out is still around our even good old Meshmixer!

Alternatively you could try adding a plane and extrusion this downwards on blender, Meshmixer etc

@nautilus @dlatch this conversation degenerated quickly…

@bdonvr you’ve probably heard this before… But magnetic PEI build plate is the best adhesion I’ve had.
Used glass on my CR10S but it’s night and day vs PEI on the ender 3 S1 plus.
Keeping it clean is key but copious quantity of IPA and a very light sand has worked so far.
