PTFE Tube Cap with Filament Holder
Model originally uploaded to Thingiverse at https://www.thingiverse.com/thing:3024428.
I have a drybox that uses PTFE tube to route the filament to my printer. When not in use, I needed a way to cap the PTFE tube to keep moisture from getting into the box. I also wanted something that would grab hold of the filament so that it doesn't go back up into the tube, requiring me to open the box.
While there are several PTFE tube caps available on Thingiverse, I only found one that also captures the filament. However, it didn't work very well. I created my own design that has some flexible arms inside the cap that will latch onto the filament.
