SMD Trays

thingiverse

I use these trays for passive components when hand populating PCBs after applying solder paste via stenciling. I can combine them to create however many cells are necessary based on the total number of components listed in my Bill Of Materials, or BOM. It makes it very simple to keep all my project kits neatly organized together at once. I'm hopeful that it will also prove to be a helpful resource for others out there who might be working on similar projects! You can easily customize this thing! Customize it by opening up the customizer and making any necessary changes. Change how many rows are displayed in comparison to columns, or even add some text right onto the lid for extra convenience. Download a file called an STL and then print out as many individual compartments and walls as you may require. Simply snap all the components together once they've been printed and it should be a tight fit that stays secure on its own. Once everything is snapped in place, simply slide the top lid right over top of it. And with that, get to making some stuff!
