$27.00Bench Triple Drawer MK1

myminifactory

A 3D printable robust, durable and efficient standard Bench Triple Drawer unit, consisting of three medium duty drawers sized 257 mm wide X 270 mm depth X 60 mm hight ( ~10 1/8” X ~10 5/8” X ~2 3/8”), in a four-sided frame, suitable for mounting under a standard workbench or in a cabinet. The project specifically takes advantage and utilizes the build volume of larger hobbyist 3D printers, such as the “Creality CR10” 3D printer and others, with a build area of at least 300 mm X 300 mm (~ 11.8” X 11.8”) or larger. It is optimized to be printed using a 0.6 mm nozzle, but can also be printed using a standard 0.4 mm nozzle. Our internal testing showed that a 0.6 mm nozzle printing at a 0.3 mm layer hight and a 0.75 mm extrusion width on a “CR10” provides adequate printing resolution for most parts of this project, while cutting the print time down to approximately 1/3 of the print time when using a typical 0.4 nozzle. The two exceptions are the Drawer’s Front Face Plate and the Drawer’s Wheels, which benefits when using a 0.6 mm nozzle at a layer height of 0.2 mm. The parts can be easily 3D printed, without any support, on a modern inexpensive larger 3D Printer. They can be printed with a variety of materials, including PLA, PETG, ABS, ASA and many other types of printable materials. PLA works well for this application as long as the parts will not be used, stored or kept at in a high temperature environment, exceeding ~55 C (~ 130 F). It is easy to print. The object should be durable, easy to maintain, and last for a long time. PETG should work as well for applications where the unit will be sujected to higher temperatures such as if it is mounted in a work van during the summer.
