Divider for Ikea Kugis 26cm x 18cm x 8cm

UPDATE: 
Please use V2 from now on. I redid some modeling.

- Now its an easy fit for all parts - the bigger ones too.

- better stability and less warping on the outer walls

- the lid now is better supported

Hi fellow nerds, crafters, tinkerers - or short lovely People :) 

i know, i know… a real craft room needs to look a bit messy. Same goes for the workbench. But what about the shelves? I personally cant stand messy shelves. And the best Solution i found so far are those stackable boxes from Ikea named KUGIS. They are reasonable sturdy, look good, and you can get them in sooo many sizes. But sometimes the Boxes are too big and they dont really work with gridfinity. 

So i decided to put my 3d Printer to good use and designed the ultimate, the perfect, the one and only

IKEA KUGIS Divider

(ok maybe i got a little bit over enthusiastic, but its really quite cool. Keep reading ;) )

Features

• Dividers for 26cm x 18cm x 8cm Kugis Box. 

  You can find Dividers for the 18cm x 13cm x 8cm HERE .

  I'll add dividers for the 26cm x 18cm x 15cm later. (because its not about the length but about the heigth or something…)

   

• 17 different inserts for every Kugis size, that you can mix and match
• a convenient hole in the middle to take out boxes easily
• 3 different intermediate lids in case you use the divider that are split in height
• Step File of my base forms for every Kugis size, to make your own divider boxes with different measurements. 
• Quite loose fit, so its easy to take a single container out. (with exception of the “bottom whole” insert, see below)

• Fake Vase mode profiles for fast printing

   

So its quite simple: 
This is are the models for the 26x18x8 Box. I made dividers for the 18x13x8 too (see link above) and ill add Dividers for the 26x18x15cm box at a later point. 

In the profile you'll find different boxes to print. Just mix and match it as you like and print the corresponding parts. The Build plates are named accordingly. 

The inserts are printed in a fake vase mode. So its no problem to print more than one of them on one build plate! Each of them is on a single build plate so its better organized and easier to find the right one, thats all! 

Youll have: two corners, one long and one wide box. Each of them is available in a full height version (theyll have a “full” in their file name) and split in half with an upper and a bottom version (with “bottom” or “upper” in the file name). In addition, theres a box called “whole" with an upper or bottom addendum, that uses the whole space of the corresponding Kugis Size, just split in half. Theres a intermediate cap or lid to place between the upper and bottom dividers in 3 sizes: one for the whole Kugis box, one long and one wide variant. 

NOTE: The “bottom whole” file is a bit tricky to put into the box. Align it carefully and use some force. If it fits, it sits but you need a bit of force to get it out again too. I tested on my Test piece and its durable enough, so you dont break anything. 

Important

The profiles make use of a fake vase mode for reasonable fast printing. If you use your own profile, make sure to change line width to 0.6mm, wall line to 1, bottom layers to 5, top shell layers to 0 and infill to 0. The caps/lids need 5 bottom and 5 top shell layers at 0.2mm layer height to be printed massive or you'll have to give them infill. 
If you dont do this, have fun with some stupid massive boxes without any purpose. You have been warned, dont cry in the comments!

If you want or need another size or shape of divider (everyone's got his own preferences… no shaming from my side ;) ), you can download the baseform-STEP-File for your Kugis size. This file basically represents the inner volume of the Kugis box. Load it into the CAD Software of your choice and split it to your liking. I would highly appreciate, if you would upload your individual size as a print profile or a remix. Please use the Box size in the name and a picture that shows what kind of divider you created.
