Description
@povski made interesting small parts tray that I found useful when taking part machines while fixing them and to store all the bolts, washers and gaskets and other small parts. I tend to have many projects ongoing at the same time, so these help me find the right parts for each project.
But his design had only one wall, which might be enough if using 0.6mm nozzle, but all my printers have 0.4mm nozzle and then just one wall makes the tray quite weak and I don't like one time use stuff. After my modification, it now has 3 walls, but filament consumption only increases from 11 grams to 18 grams and the tray is much sturdier and durable. Since the outer diameter increased 0.8mm, the lid had to be tiny bit bigger too and after third attempt I found the correct size :)
Original tray printed in 1h50min and with same setting this stronger tray prints in 2h37min.
This is great use for the "end of spool" things you have laying around!
