I rarely use a filament dryer in 3D printing; here is what I use instead

Like most 3D printing enthusiasts, I started out thinking that a filament dryer was a must-have accessory. Humidity can ruin a spool faster than you'd expect, and I've seen firsthand how wet filament can lead to poor results. So yes, I bought a dryer and used it regularly at first. However, over time, I discovered a more suitable solution that integrates more naturally into my workflow and is far less expensive to maintain.
