parametric cookie tin divider

thingiverse

This is a straightforward project. It's a divider for cookie tins that provides organization. You're unlikely to find one of these dividers outside a supermarket, but they can contain sewing supplies or random items instead of cookies. To add some order to my workspace, I designed three versions with four, six, and eight compartments. Each compartment is identical within the same model. Using the attached FreeCAD files, you can easily modify this design by adjusting parameters in the "param" spreadsheet. The drawings show which parameters you can change: * Inner radius of the tin * Inner height of the tin * Middle radius (the cylinder where all dividers meet) * Divider thickness (thickness of divider walls) * Bottom pad radius (small pad in the middle, increases printability) * Bottom pad thickness * Chamfer height (45° chamfers) You can also delete the chamfers and bottom pad if you prefer. Unless you have a perfectly calibrated printer, it's best to print with a brim. The example file is designed for a cookie tin containing Danish cookies from Aldi North (possibly also suitable for Aldi South, Hofer, Trader Joes, etc.). Enjoy arranging your "stuff" in cookie tins with precision. Conceivably Engineering - Little expertise, big smiles.
