Thread Boards compatible rectangular containers

Design your perfect wall bin for the Thread Boards system with this fully parametric OpenSCAD container generator. 🧵🧱

This model lets you create rectangular containers and brace-style holders that snap right into your Thread Boards wall organization setup. Every dimension is adjustable, so you can dial in exactly what you need for tools, hardware, craft supplies, cables, or anything else that needs a tidy home.

Features

• Thread Boards Compatible
  • Mounting pattern designed to align with the Thread Boards wall system.
  • Adjust the number of mounting holes to match your load and layout (e.g., short bins with 2 holes, long bins with 4+).
• Fully Resizable Container
  • Customize:
    • Width – how many “columns” wide your container should be.
    • Depth – how far it sticks out from the wall.
    • Height – low trays up to deep storage bins.
    • Floor Thickness – set a positive integer as floor thickness to as a standard bin for loose parts, screws, batteries, etc.  Set a 0 thickness setting to have a container without a bottom to it
  • Perfect for dialing in the exact size for specific tools or parts.
• Center Cut Out

  • 

  • Creates a variable-width brace-style holder instead of a full bin.
  • Ideal for holding spools, boxes, tool cases, or items that already have their own bottom.
  • You control the brace width to snugly support your item without fully enclosing it.
• Print-Friendly Design
  • Flat back for clean mounting to the board.
  • Parameters tuned for FDM printing with no or minimal support (depending on your chosen dimensions and overhangs).

Suggested Uses

• Small parts bins for screws, nuts, and washers.
• Deep containers for glue bottles, spray cans, or tools.
• Floorless rails to hold labeled boxes or organizers.
• Brace-style supports for filament spools, small cases, or storage bins you already own.
