Hey guys, I work at a lab that has a small print farm. We recently had to get a supply of 2.5kg ESD filament as our vendor didn't have the usual 1kg spools in stock. The problem is these new spools are massive, and our filament dryers are nowhere near big enough to accommodate them.

I have this Cosori food dehydrator at home (picture below) that I've repurposed for filament drying, and I brought in one of its segments to see if the spool would fit inside; but the spool was still too large.

The spool dimensions are 3.875"H and a diameter of 11.75". Does anyone know of any food dehydrators that would be large enough to accommodate a spool of this size?

I'm currently doing research to see if I can find a large enough dehydrator, but all of the manufacturers I've so far looked at seem to only give external dimensions, not internal. If anyone knows of a good dehydrator, it would really help out!
