Hobby knife caddy

prusaprinters

<p>I like things neat and organized. In working with 3d prints, I have accumulated several hobby knives, deburring tools, spare blades, etc. I created this caddy to hold several handles, spare blades and misc. parts. There is also an integrated, removable box to safely deposit your dull blades.</p><p>There is a lip on the body and the inverse on the drawer so the drawer won't slide out on accident. It must be slid up, then out, to remove it.</p><p>Optional - Accessory box 1 fits in the narrower side channel to add a small bin for cotton swaps or other small parts.&nbsp;</p><p>Optional - Accessory box 2 fits in the middle square (shown with white ceramic blades in the picture) and splits it down the middle for additional storage of little parts, etc.&nbsp;</p><p>&nbsp;</p><p><strong>Supports</strong></p><p>You'll want to add supports to the drawer top (the dull blade slot).</p><p>Add supports to the lip on the used blade drawer.</p><p>&nbsp;</p><p><strong>Assembly</strong></p><p>I printed the drawer separate from the drawer front because I wanted the front to blend in with the main body.</p><p>To assemble:</p><ol><li>Place the main caddy body on a flat surface.</li><li>Insert the drawer into the caddy body with the drawer lip facing out. <strong>It should fit behind the lip on the body and slide down easily</strong>. You're looking for a 5mm gap between the top of the drawer and the inside of the drawer cavity. <strong>If the drawer doesn't slide down, it's either too long or you have it backwards.</strong></li><li>Apply super glue to the drawer face.</li><li>Tilt up the drawer face to meet with the drawer making sure everything is aligned side to side and top to bottom.</li><li>Hold until your glue is set.</li></ol><p>To remove the drawer, slide it up and pull out.</p>
