Left: I opened a sealed roll of a filament purchased in 2018 and I printed that rose
Right: I dried that filament in the creality dryer overnight and sent the print again
This pic was taken on 10th April. After drying the filament I put it back in storage and I forgot about it until it exploded today
Yeah, you can easily order okay to decent quality silica beads for $6-15 a pound(~400g). Same colored stuff that is in the satchets, that you can dry in a dehydrator, the oven or even microwave.
You might be good with what you have, but thought I’d mention it in case you were going to restock or others wanting a bunch to stay safe.
