Introduction

A set of 3D printed stackable bins for small parts.

Parts

No parts specified.

  1. You can download the file and print it on your own 3D Printer. Find it in our GitHub repository: https://github.com/BrownDogGadgets/3D-Pr... There are four different versions depending on the height you want your bin.

  2. If you print as a one-color print you can ignore the "Paw" file, but if you want to do a two color print (and you have a multicolor printer) you can load the Bin and Paw together in your slicer and then choose two different colors. We recommend a darker color for the Paw. Black works best. If you print with an 0.2 layer height it will use just a single layer for black and reduce waste due to filament changes.

  3. Great for LEDs and other small parts. And they are stackable to conserve space!

    • Reminder: Do not put CR2032 batteries into a container! It's best to store them in our CR2032 Battery Holders so they do not short out!

  4. Add some rubber feet to the bottom if you want them to be non-slip on your desk. They still stack just fine with feet attached.

  5. If these bins look familiar, you may have seen Gridfinity, a modular, open-source grid storage system!

    • We originally wrote our own code, but then realized it closely matched up with a 4x4 Gridfinity bin.

    • So we ended up using code from Gridfinity Rebuilt, an OpenSCAD library for Gridfinity in our design.

    • The size is also perfect for 3" square sticky notes. :)
