Description
I nearly titled this YAAO (Yet Another Altoid Organizer), since there are so many designs out there for Altoid tin inserts.
Still, I think it's a handy addition to the "canon" of Altoid inserts. This one is custom made for owners of the Kodama Trinus 3D printer. The Trinus is nearly all black, and its enclosure is made of smoked plastic, so if you need to open your extruder to clean out a block, it's easy for one of the extruder's little black fasteners to bounce off to where you won't find it.
This organizer will help you keep spare fasteners organized (or just stash the ones you've temporarily removed in a way that they won't easily get lost). Oh, and there's room for your tools, too -- small Allen (hex) wrenches, the all-important 5.5mm open-ended wrench for calibration adjustments, etc.
Note that this insert is designed to just barely fit inside an Altoids tin. You'll need to apply pressure to get it into the tin; after that, it's a permanent addition (hope you like it!).
Update 2025/02/09: I've added files for two alternate divisions of this increasingly-inaccurately named design, in long halves and in short halves.
