Utilize the available print profiles for specific sizes or dive into the Fusion 360 file to explore a range of customizable parameters. The model is intelligently designed, automatically calculating and evenly spacing the pattern on the front. Say goodbye to manual adjustments – simply define the basic parameters and witness the magic of automated calculations! 😊</p><h3>Introduction</h3><p>Facing desk clutter and a lack of space, I sought a solution beyond traditional boxes. Constantly shuffling items between surfaces became tiresome, prompting me to design a drawer that blends seamlessly with my workspace.</p><p>&nbsp;</p><p>Seeking simplicity and functionality, I aimed for a design that integrates smoothly with my surroundings. As a programmer, gamer, and hobbyist, I spend countless hours at my desk, so creating an environment that fosters productivity and minimizes stress was paramount.</p><p>&nbsp;</p><p>Drawing on community feedback, I refined the model to meet practical needs, resulting in features like stackability, pull-out protection, on-desk usage, and optional handles. Although delicate, these enhancements elevate usability and aesthetics.</p><p>&nbsp;</p><p>I invite you to share your thoughts and contribute ideas for improvement. <br>Your feedback is invaluable in shaping future iterations.</p><h3>Description</h3><p>The choice is yours: utilize it as a desk drawer or mount it beneath your desk for additional surface area. Engineered for seamless operation, the drawers feature rounded corners and rails to minimize surface drag resistance, ensuring smooth functionality. Built-in pull-out protection prevents accidental drawer removal, safeguarding your belongings from falling. If needed, the drawers can still be easily removed. With ample surface area, tape can be used for mounting; alternatively, angled boreholes allow for secure screwing underneath your desk for added stability. Two case options are available: one offers a sleek appearance even from the sides, while the other facilitates stacking and connecting multiple units using connectors for enhanced rigidity. Finally, a base and top cover complete the look, transforming it into an on-desk drawer and concealing any holes as desired.<br> </p><figure class="table" style="width:97.18%;"><table class="ck-table-resized"><colgroup><col><col></colgroup><tbody><tr><td style="width:50%;"><figure class="image"><img src="https://makerworld.bblmw.com/makerworld/draft/711082/2024-02-06_c93f158139fe1.jpg"></figure><p><strong>Under Desk Drawer Mode</strong></p></td><td style="width:50%;"><figure class="image"><img src="https://makerworld.bblmw.com/makerworld/draft/711082/2024-02-06_d899642f12e4.jpg"></figure><p><strong>Upper Desk Drawer Mode</strong></p></td></tr></tbody></table></figure><h3>Demo v1</h3><p>This demo showcases the behavior of the initial iteration.

Minimal support is provided for the large holes underneath the case, which can be disabled if desired, though it enhances their appearance and makes them easy to remove. Additionally, there is minimal support for the pull-out clamps on the drawer, which are essential; removing them would result in printing in mid-air.</p><h3>Print Times & Filament</h3><h4>Under Desk Drawer</h4><figure class="table" style="width:100%;"><table><thead><tr><th>Variant</th><th> </th></tr></thead><tbody><tr><th style="width:200px;">100x140x32 mm</th><td><strong>~3.2 h</strong><br>~136g Filament</td></tr><tr><th style="width:200px;">160x100x42 mm</th><td><strong>~4.1 h</strong><br>~182 g Filament</td></tr><tr><th style="width:200px;">220x160x42 mm</th><td><strong>~7h</strong><br>~346 g Filament</td></tr></tbody></table></figure><p>1x Drawer, 1x Holder Plain</p><h4>Upper Desk Drawer</h4><figure class="table" style="width:100%;"><table><tbody><tr><th style="width:200px;">Variant</th><td> </td></tr><tr><th style="width:200px;">100x140x32 mm</th><td><strong>~9h</strong><br>~349g Filament</td></tr><tr><th style="width:200px;">160x100x42 mm</th><td><strong>~11h</strong><br>~443g Filament</td></tr><tr><th style="width:200px;">220x160x42 mm</th><td><strong>~17h</strong><br>~816g Filament</td></tr></tbody></table></figure><p>2x Drawer, 2x Handle, 2x Holder Stackable, 4x Connectors, 1x Base, 1x Top</p><h3>Installation</h3><h4>Under Desk Drawer<br><br><img src="https://makerworld.bblmw.com/makerworld/draft/711082/2024-02-06_7e35b5b67fbaf.jpg"></h4><p>Secure this under-desk drawer to your table's underside using Countersunk screws (refer to recommendations). Ensure the screws sit flush for optimal stability. For a smooth installation, consider predrilling holes before mounting. Enjoy a sturdy and functional addition to your workspace! Alternatively, use tape for a hassle-free attachment— the ample surface area makes it suitable.</p><p><br><img src="https://makerworld.bblmw.com/makerworld/draft/711082/2024-02-06_b8c3f05ece19a.jpg"></p><p>&nbsp;</p><p>Check Screw Recommendations / Tape Recommendations.</p><p>&nbsp;</p><p><strong>Partslist Example</strong></p><ul><li>1 Drawer</li><li>1 Holder Plain</li><li>4 Screws / Strong Double Sided Tape<br> </li></ul><h4>Upper Desk Drawer:</h4><p><img src="https://makerworld.bblmw.com/makerworld/draft/711082/2024-02-06_e1d73468305ae.jpg"><br> </p><p><strong>Partslist Example:</strong></p><ul><li>1 Base</li><li>1 Top</li><li>2 Drawer</li><li>2 Holder Stacking</li><li>2 Handles</li><li>4 Connectors</li></ul><figure class="image"><img src="https://makerworld.bblmw.com/makerworld/draft/711082/2024-02-06_a598f2f3689da.jpg"></figure><p>Add the connectors into the holes on the holder. They are press-fit, so you need to apply some force. After you insert them on one side hold them together and repeat the stop on the opposite side.</p><figure class="image"><img src="https://makerworld.bblmw.com/makerworld/draft/711082/2024-02-06_bfe29f66d8cad.jpg"></figure><p>You can then simply put them onto the base, and add the top.</p><p><br>Please note: The base and top only COVER the holes, there is no direct connection. The covers are very small and brittle. Once added nothing will happen to them. If you want a forced connection I recommend gluing them onto the Holders.</p><p>&nbsp;</p><h4>Optional Handle:</h4><p>Apply firm and even pressure to the handle, pressing it into the grip area. The layer lines on the handle create a tight and secure fit. Use controlled force to avoid any damage to the handle or the drawer. If you desire additional stability, you can optionally apply some glue around the base of the handle. Ensure the glue is evenly distributed for a secure bond. If you haven't used glue and need to remove or replace the handle, gently wiggle it out of the grip area.</p><figure class="table" style="width:100%;"><table><tbody><tr><td><figure class="image"><img src="https://makerworld.bblmw.com/makerworld/draft/711082/2024-02-06_8e1e3a0603e1e.jpg"></figure></td><td><figure class="image"><img src="https://makerworld.bblmw.com/makerworld/draft/711082/2024-02-06_41a67c3fba9d3.jpg"></figure></td></tr></tbody></table></figure><h4>Screw Recommendations:</h4><p>With the lowered back, there's increased flexibility for screws that aren't perfectly flat. The cutout is designed for 8mm diameter screws, accommodating 4x something mm screws snugly. While 3.5x and 3mm will work, the latter leans towards the flimsy side.</p><ul><li>Spax 4x16 mm - TIGHT!<br><a target="_blank" href="https://amzn.eu/d/8YUU522" rel="nofollow noopener">https://amzn.eu/d/8YUU522</a></li><li>Spax 3.5x16 mm - OK!<br><a target="_blank" href="https://amzn.eu/d/by5afRT" rel="nofollow noopener">https://amzn.eu/d/by5afRT</a></li><li>Spax 3.0x16mm - Flimsy<br><a target="_blank" href="https://amzn.eu/d/iOn9AWF" rel="nofollow noopener">https://amzn.eu/d/iOn9AWF</a></li></ul><p><strong>Tape Recommendations:</strong><br><br>When taping it to the underside of your desk, invest in quality tape designed for this purpose.

Before printing, please ensure the accuracy of the profiles not provided by me.</p><h4>28.01.2024 - Release v3</h4><p>I want to express my gratitude to everyone who provided feedback on the model. Consolidating all the input, it took some time, but as I continue to learn CAD and Fusion 360, and with around four months of 3D printing experience, I'm pleased to share an improved model. Despite the increased print time and filament usage, the updated version is now significantly sturdier and more reliable, enhancing the overall feel when using the drawer. 😊</p><p>&nbsp;</p><p>I'm actively updating the description to reflect these changes. However, I wanted to release the model files promptly to address the layer adhesion problem that some users encountered. Your support is greatly appreciated!<br><br><img src="https://makerworld.bblmw.com/makerworld/draft/711082/2024-01-28_1fd67753fba56.jpg"></p><p>&nbsp;</p><ul><li><strong>Height Adjustment</strong><br>You may observe a 2mm height increase – no worries, existing drawers remain compatible. The added height accommodates the new holder design, providing a snug fit around the drawer.</li><li><strong>Holder Upgrade</strong><br>The holder is now enclosed, resolving previous layer adhesion issues. Print vertically for enhanced stability and rigidity. Bonus: Easily install with double-sided tape.</li><li><strong>Holder Variants</strong><br>Responding to user requests, two holder variants are available. Choose between a sleek variant for mounting below the desk or a stackable version with connectors.</li><li><strong>Pull-Out Protection</strong><br>Introducing a "pull-out" protection feature. While you can still pull it out, you'll experience minimal resistance. The strategically placed stopper ensures enough drawer remains in the holder.</li><li><strong>Additional Features</strong><br>Added a Top Cover for desk drawer use.<br>Included a Base for elevating the drawer.</li></ul><p>Enjoy the enhanced functionality and versatility of the updated release! Feel free to reach out with any questions or feedback.</p><h4>27.01.2024</h4><ul><li>Added an optional Handle</li></ul><h4>21.01.2024 - Release v2</h4><p>Based on Feedback the models were slightly adjusted. <strong>These improvements are compatible with previous printed parts. </strong>That means you can replace the mount or the drawer and keep the other one.</p><ol><li>I get that it´s tough to have the right screws at hand. The back of the drawer was lowered by 3mm to allow screws not to sit 100% flat flush and have a bit more room.</li><li>The back of the mount is now reinforced. It is now a little bit taller than before and has cross struts on both sides to make the mount more rigid.</li><li>I increased the walls to 3 and the bottom layers to 5, this will make a more solid infill and also increase the rigidity.</li></ol><h3><strong>More Fusion 360 Parameterized Models</strong></h3><ul><li>Organizer Box<br><a target="_blank" href="https://makerworld.com/en/models/103266" rel="nofollow noopener">https://makerworld.com/en/models/103266</a></li><li>Organizer Box Diamond Edition<br><a target="_blank" href="https://makerworld.com/en/models/147775" rel="nofollow noopener">https://makerworld.com/en/models/147775</a></li><li>Stackable Storage Bin<br><a target="_blank" href="https://makerworld.com/en/models/114250" rel="nofollow noopener">https://makerworld.com/en/models/114250</a></li><li>Modern Vase 1<br><a target="_blank" href="https://makerworld.com/en/models/108166" rel="nofollow noopener">https://makerworld.com/en/models/108166</a></li></ul>
