Customizable Stacking Bins

thingiverse

I needed some bins that could be easily moved around in a tool cabinet I have, while also being fairly easy and quick to print. I originally built this in Fusion 360, and most of the photos are of that variant. However, I found it difficult to export different sizes without spending unnecessary time in Fusion. This is my first attempt at making something usable from OpenSCAD, so please leave any feedback you can provide so I can improve this model and future designs. One thing I'm still working on is a way to easily label the bins. If the facet edge is large enough, a label can be stuck fairly easily, but moving the bins around will likely wear the label off. Please share any ideas you have on this. ### Recommended Starting Points Size - This is up to you and what you're trying to fill. 75-100-30 is a good starting point. Wall Thickness - I recommend 1 - 2mm thickness for optimal results. Facets - I suggest starting with 3mm facets, which is the height of the triangle, not the hypotenuse. To make bins compatible with each other, set the length of the boxes to the same. This will allow stacked boxes to slide over each other. ### Pre-Sized Files I've also included pre-sized files, and the filename structure is as follows: 75x-100y-30z_2.stl. Width = 75mm Length = 100mm Height = 30mm Separations = 2
