A modular storage system that allows you to build custom shelves and drawers however you want them.

The Hex Storage uses hexagonal storage tubes/shelves that can be slotted together using a peg insert.
 

Please Note: These do not take 26 hours to print a single item. The profiles contain 6-7 plates with one variation on each plate. Pick and choose the parts you want from the profiles.

The Hexs are available in 3 styles

• Standard (85mm high internal, see measurement image for other dimensions)
• Med Hex (3x 41.5mm internal hexes, plus 3 smaller diamonds)
• Mini Hex (15x 19.25mm internal hexes, plus 6x smaller half hexes)

There are also 3 different designs of drawers (which can fit into the standard Hex tubes):

• Standard Drawer (Single drawer uses the full length of the Hex space)
• Divided Drawer (Features a dividing wall half way along to separate storage)
• Labelled Drawer (Functionaly the same as the standard drawer, but features an area for adding a text label)

Profiles

I have included three profiles which have been set up and tested thoroughly.

Each profile features all variations of the items, but each on a separate plate. So you can just select the item you want, choose the amount (you can position up to 4 hexes and 6 pegs on a single X1/P1 plate) and print from there.

• AMS Hex Storage (As described above, and is pre-painted for printing in two colours with an AMS)
• One Colour Hex Storage (As described above, but intended for printing with a single colour)
• Filament Change Hex Storage (As described above, but with pre-applied manual filament changes for multi-colour printing without an AMS)

Customise Text

One of the drawers features a text panel so you can label it. If you just use the STL, this is blank so you can either add text digitally yourself, or use it for a paper label.
My profile includes text pre-applied to this area which you can customize in Bambu Studio to whatever you like. Please see the instructional picture above for how to do this

In the profile, the settings are already applied, but if you're applying it yourself, I'd suggest making the text depth 0.6mm.

Print Settings:

• Orientation:
  • Hex's (For all Hexes, print them standing upright, with the hole at the top)
  • Drawers
    • Multi-colour (AMS or Filament Change):
      For all drawers, print them with the honecomb affect on the print bed, and use tree support (build plate only), to support printing of the back
    • Single Colour
      These can be oriented same as above, or you can avoid support material when printing single colour by lying it either flat along it's base, or along one of the side walls (though doing so will mean you'll see layer lines across the front of the drawer)
  • Pegs Pegs should be printed standing upright. This will take a bit longer, but any other orientation will result in a lot of overhang and any deformation could affect the peg's ability to fit into the hex slots. 
• Material: PLA
• Layer Height: 0.2mm
• Walls: 
  • Hex's & Drawers: 3
  • Pegs: 3-4 (3 will be fine unless you're putting significant weight on these shelves, but 4 walls will result in pretty much solid print which can make the pegs slightly stiff to fit, thought they still work fine).
• Infill: 15% Gyroid
• Support:
  • Hexs: None
  • Drawers: Tree support, build plate only, for the inside of the drawers.
  • Pegs: A brin is recommended on these due to their thin and tall design
