| 10 | |||
| 11 | When removing filament from the machine, put it in a vacuum sealed plastic bag with two blue desiccant bags so that it stays dry. The bags have a pattern on them that allows air to flow even if the two sides of the plastic are in contact. | ||
| 12 | |||
| 13 | When the desiccant balls have turned purple they will be less effective at absorbing moisture and should be thrown out. When the bags are no longer able to hold a vacuum within them, they should be thrown out. | ||
