I'm a big fan of Gunplamark's remixed filament box.

Look at the remix files. There's a better roller design by CMYK

You're going to need a scraper. Print your own or buy the plastic replaceable razor scraper (the blade itself is plastic so it can't hurt your build plate)
You will also need a deburring tool.
That's fantastic! Is that to control the temperature or humidity of the filament?
Humidity. Wet filament is notorious for failed prints. There are ways and devices to dry filament again, but it's just better to keep it dry from the beginning!
Makes perfect sense. Thanks!
Oh and to keep the filament dry get the bulk orange desiccant. The white activated alumina is technically better but the orange is much easier to know when it's ready to be dried in the oven. -and to know when its finished drying. I tried microwave and damaged the orange color change from over heating. Oven at low temp for drying desiccant is fool proof.
Appreciate it. I never would have thought of this.
