Any ideas for single filament spool containers (EU)?
Does anyone have any good alternatives for the Rubbermaid food containers I see some people use for their filament spools? Like this for example:
Thing is that those containers aren't available in the EU and I haven't been able to find anything similar. Most containers are either too small or too big.
(Btw, the ones in the picture are pretty big too, but I've seen other sizes that almost perfectly fit the typical 1kg spools)
Perhaps there's something else I could try that I haven't thought of yet?

Ping.
Nobody has any suggestions?

You can print this SPANNERHANDS Spool System Wall Mounted Spool Holder & Dust Cover found on #Thingiverse https://www.thingiverse.com/thing:2119644
It's so great and easy. I use it for mmu2.0

Yeah, I saw those. I like the v6 versions.
But I was actually hoping for something easier where you can just order a bunch of them.
And yes you can buy those containers too but they're really expensive.
I was using a $15 Tupperware as a test and that already seems expensive of you want 10-20 of them 😉

I found two boxes with could fit normal 1kg spools, to be used standing on a side surface

Those are good options, thanks!
I've been through a bunch of local stores to see what they have and I found several _round_ candidates, but round ones give more problems with how easy it is to place them and to make a nice hole to feed a tube and filament through.
So I'm really looking for square ones like you linked to. Unfortunately on the shelf I have to place them they can only have a max dimension of about 26cm 🙁
I'll just keep looking, thanks! 🙂
