Modular Stackable Interlocking Storage System

A versatile, stackable, and interlocking modular storage system designed for organizing tools, crafts, cables, or any small items. Each cylinder is 165 mm in diameter and 175 mm tall, with a flexible, snap-together design that allows for endless configurations—stack them vertically, interlock them horizontally, or use them as standalone containers.

Key Features:
✅ Modular & Stackable – Design allows for secure stacking to maximize vertical space.
✅ Interlocking Mechanism – Snap-together edges ensure stability when connected side-by-side.
✅ Flexible Material Compatibility – Optimized for TPU, PETG, or flexible filaments (recommend TPU 95A for best flexibility).
✅ 165mm Diameter × 175mm Height – Perfect for desk organization, workshops, or travel storage.
✅ Open or Closed Top – Customizable with optional lids (separate print).
✅ Easy to Print – Designed with minimal supports (only for the interlocking tabs if needed).
✅ Customizable – Adjust height or diameter in your slicer for personalized sizes.

Ideal For:

• Workshop organization (screws, bolts, small tools)
• Craft supplies (beads, threads, paintbrushes)
• Cable management (charging cables, earbuds)
• Travel or camping gear (toiletries, first aid kits)
• Kitchen or pantry storage (spices, snacks)

Printing Recommendations:

• Filament: TPU (95A for flexibility), PETG (for rigidity), or PLA (for prototypes).
• Layer Height: 0.2 mm for balance of strength and speed.
• Infill: 10–20% (higher for rigidity, lower for flexibility).
• Supports: Only for interlocking tabs (use tree supports at 45° overhangs).
• Speed: 30–40 mm/s for outer walls, 20 mm/s for bridges/interfaces.

Design Notes:

• Tolerance: 0.2 mm gap between interlocking parts for smooth assembly.
• Flexibility: If using TPU, print slower (20–30 mm/s) to avoid warping.
• Scaling: Can be scaled in height (e.g., 200mm, 250mm) for taller storage.
