My SUNLU S1 Plus filament dryer was slipping around getting yanked forward on my TUKKARI TLX MK4 enclosure, so I designed this mount which fits into the existing slots on top of the enclosure. Prints in two pieces that screw together since otherwise the supports would be complicated. Had to print the larger piece on my big bed printer (artillery sw x2). I'm using up the last of my prusament galaxy black pla.

Digging the slit for the filament to move to and fro.

Nice and thx for sharing the link. Curious about the enclosure. Notice a difference? You have a challenging / drafty space for your printer that required this or just trying to get a bit more perfection / less PETG warping issues? Assume you like it since you are customizing things for it.

Enclosure is mostly to keep cat hair off my printer (my cat sheds like crazy) and to filter some of the microplastic dust and fumes. It does reduce warping by keeping the volume warmer than room temperature, I print a lot of PETG so this helps.
