<h2>BASIC GENERATOR</h2>This parametric container is ideal for creating suitable cases for various tools and small parts. The internal dimensions and some geometries can be changed via the parameters. The container is created in the generator on a single print layer. The generated stl file in Bambu Studio can be split into several printing plates using the split object function.<figure class="image"><img src="https://makerworld.bblmw.com/makerworld/model/DSM00000000476221/design/2024-06-13_c09268cd1d223.png"><figcaption>Split stl into multiply objects</figcaption></figure>In addition to the dimensions, you can also decide whether a hinged lid or a lid that can be removed completely should be generated. Depending on the selected parameters, different screw lengths must be used to assemble the container. It is recommended that lockclip_size+2*rip_thickness is a multiple of 5mm so that standard screws can be used.If there are any problems with the generation of the files, please write me a message so that I can fix this as quickly as possible.&nbsp;I hope you like the design and I would be happy if you upload the finished containers as a make.<h2>CUTOUT GENERATOR</h2>In addition to the online version of the generator, the files also include a version that only works directly in OpenSCAD. In this version, dxf files can be imported to create suitable cutouts for tools. The cutout generator is still in the test phase and cannot be used online because the dxf import function is not available in Makerworld. I hope that such a function will be integrated in the future. Instructions for this function can be found below.<h3>INSTRUCTIONS</h3>On Makerworld its not possible to upload .dxf Files into the generator so this generator does only work directly on your PC.Step by Step introduction:<ol><li>Dowload Openscad and Inkscape (you can use other program to generate the dxf file)</li><li>Make a photo with a ruler to scale it in inkscape. NOTE: The best way to do this is using a scanner because it automaticly has the right dimensions. Open it in Inkscape and make the following steps. It is necessary that the Dimension of the .dxf is correct!</li><li>Draw an outline with some tolerance and set the unit to mm or inch (Image 1)</li><li>delete the image and press [CTRL+SHIFT+D] and adjust the document size to the outline (Image 2)</li><li>OpenSCAD / dxf can&#39;t read this line format. What we need to do is convert it to a path. Drag-select your outline and Press [Shift+Ctrl+C].</li><li>Select the node tool [N], and notice how the handles on the object now look like gray squares. This indicates we now have a path.</li><li>press [Ctrl+A] to select every node. With the nodes selected, notice how the handles changed again. With every node selected, initialize some mouseclicking action on the indicated button &#34;Insert new nodes into selected segments&#34;(Image 3 (1)).This inserts new nodes into selected segments, following the curve. With still every node selected, press the indicated button to &#34;Make selected segment lines&#34;. (Image 3 (2)). This step generate only straight lines.</li><li>Now save the file as .dxf (R14) with the right units. It must be saved in the same path as the “ParametricRuggedContainerAutomaticCutout.scad” File</li><li>Open the “ParametricRuggedContainerAutomaticCutout.scad” File and insert the Parameters cutoutlength and cutoutdepth. (Image 4)</li><li>Measure the height of the Tool and insert the size into “cutoutheight” (Image 5).</li><li>Now adjust all the other sizes. Be aware that the height and height top are dependent of the cutoutheight!</li><li>Have Fun with ur new Toolbox  </li></ol><figure class="image image_resized" style="width: 61.84%"><img src="https://makerworld.bblmw.com/makerworld/model/DSM00000000476221/design/2024-06-05_4519978a27fc1.png"><figcaption>Image 1: Outline the object</figcaption></figure><figure class="image image_resized" style="width: 61.62%"><img src="https://makerworld.bblmw.com/makerworld/model/DSM00000000476221/design/2024-06-05_685edbb0a7812.png"><figcaption>Image 2: Adjust the docoment size</figcaption></figure><figure class="image image_resized" style="width: 61.31%"><img src="https://makerworld.bblmw.com/makerworld/model/DSM00000000476221/design/2024-06-05_ada4d52d57b05.png"><figcaption>Image 3</figcaption></figure>       <figure class="image image_resized" style="width: 60.51%"><img src="https://makerworld.bblmw.com/makerworld/model/DSM00000000476221/design/2024-06-05_061f3481e8dc8.png"><figcaption>Image 4</figcaption></figure><figure class="image image_resized" style="width: 60.5%"><img src="https://makerworld.bblmw.com/makerworld/model/DSM00000000476221/design/2024-06-05_2ad29d763f7.png"><figcaption>Image 5</figcaption></figure>&nbsp;
