Plano Model 3701 Small Parts Bins

<p>The <a href="https://www.amazon.com/Plano-23701-00-Stowaway-Adjustable-Dividers/dp/B072QTMQNH">Plano model 3701</a> storage unit is a handy size case for all sorts of smaller parts. But even with the dividers it has, it isn't very efficient when it comes to <i>really</i> small parts.</p><p>So I designed up some bins to fit inside the organizer that further divides the spaces into halves and quarters. I was inspired a lot by <a href="https://www.prusaprinters.org/prints/52091-hdx-organizer-small-parts-divider-tray-inserts">Tex's dividers for the HDX storage case</a> (which I also use extensively).</p><p>The bins I designed won't fit at the ends of the rows, just the middle slots. However, I think you'll find this still provides ample, flexible storage options.</p><p>As far as fitment goes, you'll find these get tighter the more you add to a row until you've filled they'll end up being very snugly in place. This wasn't intentional, but was kind of a happy accident. I would have reduced their width accordingly, but I've found I actually like this happening.</p><h3>Printing</h3><p><i><strong>Important note:</strong></i> print files are setup for a <strong>.6mm nozzle</strong>, and sliced for <strong>PETG</strong>.</p><p>These don't need to be super pretty so speed is more important than aesthetics. I least in my uninformed opinion. As such, you can print these as they are, without supports and they come out well enough. </p>
