I've made several remixes of Luocheng Huang's very nice Gridfinity Watch Stand, which I modified to fit 1x2 and 3x2 Gridfinity Watch cases I'd previously designed, and they have been working really well. But yesterday one of the users over on MakerWorld who made one of the remixed watch holders and my single watch case to go with it, suggested a really cool idea. Their idea was to place some desiccant into the center of the holder, where it currently is just filled with plastic and air. Since I really liked that idea, I worked on it for a while today and ended up with the design below. It utilizes the TPU cover (in white) to hold a cover over the compartment for the desiccant. The plan is for the orange pieces to be printed with an infill pattern as well, (no top or base layers), to form a grid, and then those parts will be glued into the lid and the case. That should allow either a packet of desiccant or loose beads to be used inside the compartment. To open the compartment, there is a slot to insert a flat screwdriver to pop the lid off (which has some bumps that engage with a groove in the TPU cover).
The unfortunate part of this design is that I don't have the time to test it lol. Hopefully it will get posted if I can get it tested sometime though.

6/12/2025: This is still pending a test run to make sure it all fits, before I upload it. The printer has been busy with some other projects that took priority, but those are nearing completion.
