I would take a large box when you get more back in stock.

KAS, I have been on the list for a couple of weeks for 1 large unit but have received no PayPal invoice. Do you need me to PM my PayPal address to you?

My apologies, the weather here is hampering our operations and I haven't collected any extra bags yet. Once I get enough to fill a few boxes I'll send PM's down the list.

No rush, I was just checking.

It's going to be 82 here in S. California this weekend so no rush!
Still testing anyways I put my entire 3 lb spool of nylon into the vacuum chamber.
After pumping for ~ 3 hours and weighing before and after it removed 6 grams of weight. (water)
I thought about it after but I should have spooled a smaller quantity off the roll, plus I left the paper sticky on the roll.

Thanks, KAS. I see mine are on the way. They'll likely be delivered while I'm at MRRF.

My box arrived today in California where it's been around 80 ish degrees. We skipped winter here and went right into springishsummertime

Humidity still runs ~70% in the shop.
Spooling off some nylon and into the vacuum chamber to get it started.
Appreciate the kind offer KAS this is great stuff!
It's the simple things in life that make my day.

Anytime

Just remember this stuff is well used and needs to be dried to be effective. I can say that it has eliminated the popping and hissing in some of my cheaper filament.

I was sent the large box and I damn near broke my back picking it up, this thing is heavy!
My thanks to Kas for the Dessicant and the amount he sent, one of the best deals I have
ever found. Thank you Kas!

I got mine too

mail man beat the crap out of the box and I was worried at first until I opened it up and realized what it was
Gotta throw mine in the oven pretty soon to get it dried up and then into the buckets

haha no prob all. As much as I use the forums with nothing really of much value to contribute except my relentless questioning as I try to learn this new hobby, this is the least I can do.
I have the remaining bags I'm boxing up tonight to complete the list. Which is good mostly because these next couple months we're doing stuff that doesn't require desiccant. That dries up my supply for a little while.
If anyone else wants any just understand that it's going to take a while with no guarantee at the moment.
