Insert/Organizer for Takenoko

thingiverse

The original box insert for Takenoko is actually really nice and functional, but there are reasons I designed a custom insert. I use sleeved cards, and I've seen some discussion on what size fits, but in my hands the Mayday mini size (43 x 65 mm) works well, albeit it's a super tight fit widthwise. I also use Wozzeck's bamboo inserts for the bamboo sections and irrigation pipes, which can be found at https://www.thingiverse.com/thing:4286232. And I use tile holders and irrigation pipes that I designed myself, which can be found at https://www.prusaprinters.org/prints/36702-tile-holders-and-irrigation-channels-for-takenoko. Miraculously, everything still fits into the box! Lokachu pointed out to me that the box of the first edition apparently has a different size than later ones. I don't know which one I have, but I'm pretty sure it's not the first. The dimensions of my box are 270x270x75mm. I also want to point out that the bamboo holders in https://www.thingiverse.com/thing:4286232 are actually not deep enough to hold all of the green bamboo sections. I strongly suggest you stretch them to 46 or 48 mm in the Z direction in your slicer before printing (but leave x and y alone). This will ensure that they can hold all the bamboo sections properly. Alternatively, you can use the original size of the bamboo holders and just let them spill over. Please note that the pictures here were taken before I resized the bamboo section of this organizer for the deeper holders.
