Heyho
Part 2 of this System: Stackable housings for the boxes!

I really like to design functional stuff. But I always try not to waste any excess material!
So I designed these Organizing system to pack all my stuff away :)
You have 2 possibilities. A) You print the boxes as they are and B) You can print them in Vasemode.
Pro & Con Vasemode:
+ Fast
+ Less material used
+- Toughness is strongly dependant on the used material, printing settings and nozzle diameter.
Pro & Con Classic:
+ Tough
+ You can print several parts at the same time.
- longer print time
- more material used
Optional: I also designed some lids. But since they have a friction fit at the moment You need to keep the wall thickness in mind to get a good fit. Alternatively you can print the storage system (will be published soon!)
If you like to have a Lid for a missing Box size just tell me and I can design it.
Printing Instructions:
Vasemode:
For a 0,4 mm Nozzle set your Extrusion width to 0,6 mm.
For a 0,6 mm Nozzle and versions XS set your Extrusion width to 0,6 mm. For the other Versions to 0,9 mm.
Slow down your printing speed a little to get a better layer adhesion.
Slow down or turn off your printing fan. Cooling reduces the layer adhesion a lot.
Tipp: If you have enough place on the printbed (depends on the container you choose and the printbeds size) you can use “sequential” printing to print several container in one file.
Classic:
Use the perimeter generator Arachne.
2 Perimeter 0,15 - 0,2 mm layer height are fine.
Materials:
I printed my boxes mostly in PETG but also PLA works fine. But beware! Some filaments have a quite bad layer adhesion and therefore are no good solution for a technical design like this! (mostly matte and silky filaments).
Scaling:
Of course you can also scale this Box as you like! For example to 200%?
But make sure to scale the following parts in the same way so they stay compatible to annother.
Coming soon……. Complete System!
I already designed a complete System around these boxes! But I need some more time to finish them. But I will upload that designs very soon!
Have fun!
