I wanted to place this filament dryer I got myself recently directly above my printer. So I designed and printed this shelf. It prints in parts to get as strong as possible and can be assembled using M3 screws. If you are interested, files are available here for free:

Excuse my lack of knowledge, I do not yet have a 3D Printer, but why do you need a filament dryer? Does the filament ship with residue from the manufacturing process that needs to be washed off?

Filaments absorb moisture in humid environments, and it impacts print quality.
