Parts Storage Box - 8 or 12 compartments

thingiverse

Friendly parts storage box with easy to read labels and easy access design. The 2 key problems I wanted to solve were labelling and easy access. Labelling 3D prints is tricky, when you use a Sharpie, the ink bleeds along the layer lines so you get blurry text. And sticky labels don't stick that well because of the textured surface. So the solution here was to have a small label slot for printed or hand written labels. And angled up so they're easy to read. The next problem was ease of access. It can be difficult to pick small parts out with your fingers, so the front wall of each compartment is curved so you can slide the part out. Especially important when the last few parts are stuck in the corner. This is a feature cash drawers have been using for years. The boxes have a snap close lid.
