Nozzle Storage Chest

myminifactory

I created a chest for 3D printing enthusiasts to store their valuable treasures, namely nozzles. The chest can hold up to 15 standard E3D V6 6mm threaded nozzles. Four filaments are used in the model and it prints in place. Three of these filaments are standard PLA while the fourth is flex PLA. I used the flex PLA in several ways: as flexible chest hinges, a flexible lip around the nozzle hole for easy insertion and removal, friction fit for nozzle labels, and a non-slip base. You can also print this model with a single color of PLA if you don't have multi-material capability. Note that the photograph above shows an older version, but it is similar to the current one, just with some minor tweaks. The current version has been printed in single color and confirmed to work correctly. I apologize for any under extrusion or missed layers (4 Silver, 1 Gold, 1 Brown) in the print pictured. I had a clogged nozzle early on and am still waiting for my MMU2S upgrade. You can check out more multi-material models at cults3d.com.
