'Quick little tutorial on how to convert an inexpensive food dehydrator into a filament drying power house. DISCLAIMER: I do NOT recommend the using the same dehydrator for Filament drying and food dehydration. There are any number of chemicals that can come out of the filament with the moisture and these chemicals could possibly make their way into any food you dry in the same machine, even if you use different trays. Do that at YOUR own risk. Link to the food dehydrator I used in this video: Flexzion Food Dehydrator - http://amzn.to/2GHOQut If the Flexzion is either sold out or the price from other suppliers is crazy, this Westinghouse for $38 will work as well: http://amzn.to/2Bsxth4 And here is another from Rosewill for $38 that will work: http://amzn.to/2HdMbJj If you think the benefits of the Printdry are more of what you\'re looking for, you can pick one up at Matterhackers: https://www.matterhackers.com/store/l/printdry-filament-drying-system/sk/MNXQRWQC?aff=7395 UPDATED TEMPS AND TIME: To dry the most common FDM Plastics: (all times are a MINIMUM.
