Emptying our Blast for the first time and saw how the powder knife door is the perfect height for the container the powder comes in.
I put it under the door and opened it; of course, powder went everywhere because the hole is smaller. dur…
After closer inspection there seems to be 2 tabs on the opening, as if it was made to have a funnel attached to the powder container and then just pushed into place.
I assume Formlabs has made this? Or does anybody have an STL so I don’t have go down there and measure it…
Thanks!

Hey sorry to hear about the mess. I can confirm that we didn’t actually design a secret funnel and then not share it. At HQ we usually just attach a garbage bag and secure it with a reusable ziptie or velcro strap on our Blasts, but your idea for a funnel into the jug sounds great and I hope you share your design here when you make it. To help the design process, I made a step file of the welded metal garbage port with those tabs on it.
