A version of this 3D model has been released, Desk trash bin V2 and here's the link!! Many improvements have been made, and it's much more modular than the previous one. Go check it out :)

You're tired of seeing your desk cluttered with 3D printing debris or various waste!

The solution is here: a trash can that attaches directly to your desk. Simply slide it on, and your waste will now be confined to one place.

It's as simple as that: you print it and screw it onto your desk. It can be adapted to desks up to 3.5 cm thick. I've added a piece of TPU to ensure better grip under constraint.

I made 2 versions of my trash can, one large which you can see in the photos with a height of 160 mm, and another smaller one with a height of 115 mm, for those with less filament and who want to print faster. (The assembly remains the same.)

And there you have it, problem solved! With its large capacity, you won't need to empty it every day; it can hold a lot for a long time.

IMPORTANT NOTE: There may be a slight lack of grip for the trash can to hold well. 

To remedy this, you can apply a bit of hot glue on the top of the trash can that is in contact with the table. 

After several tries, I found that the best solution was to put the trash can under constraint with the TPU. To do this, you screw the trash can normally to the table, then you remove it and tighten it a bit more. This way, when you put the trash can back in place, it will be well secured and will hardly move at all.

Good impression!
