Creator Pro Storage Tray

thingiverse

I don't use the spool holders that came with my printer, opting instead to repurpose two perfectly good slots in the back wall of the printer. I copied the dimensions from the original spool holders to create a tray for tools and other miscellaneous items. I would have preferred to design this project without supports, but having the hook positioned low on the printer caused too much stress on that section, requiring additional plastic to ensure its strength. As it stands, some extra material was needed in that area to maintain its integrity. For those with limited space or who prefer horizontal trays, I've included alternative models that can be easily printed and used. Please note that I haven't tested these designs, but by simply repositioning the hook and doubler plate, I see no reason why they shouldn't work as intended. The only potential issue is excessive force at the intersection of the hook and tray. The normal tray includes a Swiss cheese version for those who are certain they won't be placing small items in it, allowing them to save on plastic usage. The holes have a diameter of 0.7 inches for reference purposes. I'm not sure which other Flashforge printers this design will work with, so if anyone has any knowledge on the matter, please share your findings and I'll update the tags and groups accordingly.
