***Please support me by using PrusaPrinters.org!*** If you want to support me, please download and(!) like [this flipping swatch box on printables](https://www.printables.com/model/271320-filament-swatch-box-with-hinged-standard-swatches) and have a look at all [my designs there](https://www.printables.com/social/13788-makkuro/models). If there are enough downloads&likes, i might get a spool of great prusa filament for free :-). There will also be the latest version from now on (as Thingiverse downloads are a bit broken at the moment) You can find the latest [flipping filament box](https://www.printables.com/model/271320-filament-swatch-box-with-hinged-standard-swatches), the standard [filament box](https://www.printables.com/model/115302-customizable-filament-swatch-box-filament-tests-fi) (including pegboard holders) and [swatch dividers](https://www.printables.com/model/116367-customizable-filament-swatch-dividers) there. ***The flipping filament swatch box***: In case you print several of these filament swatches, you might need a storage solution. This is an improved one, where each swatch has its own slot-in holder which includes a hinge, in order to browse through all the colors/materials quickly. Features: - All swatches are held securely, can still be browsed through as each swatch is hinged - Standard swatches can be used as they are (backward compatible) - The swatches can be removed and put back freely - The box is designed to be print-in-place - Box sizes are 5, 10, 20, 30, 50 swatches. More possible of course using the OpenSCAD source. - The lid has either no label, or you can get lids with all material labels from [flipping filament box](https://www.printables.com/model/271320-filament-swatch-box-with-hinged-standard-swatches). These [filament swatches](https://www.printables.com/model/27814-filament-swatch-sample) fit perfectly. Customizing To customize, install OpenSCAD on your own computer and follow the customizing instructions on this thing page.
