Expandable and parametric spice rack model. Change the size of the spice glass slots and overall length/width to match your spice glasses and the internal meassures your drawer.

Multiple racks can be fixed to each other, by rotating the connector piece.

Models attached:

• 204 mm wide model: 4 * 45 mm slots with 120 mm length and 6 mm row space
• 255 mm wide model: 5 * 45 mm slots with 120 mm length and 6 mm row space
• 232 mm wide model: 4 * 52 mm slots with 150 mm length and 6 mm row space

Editing the parameters:

This requires Autodesk Fusion 360. See this article about how to download and install the application if you don't already have it. You can obtain a free user license for personal use. 

The following parameters can be changed:

1. Open the *.f3d file in Fusion 360
2. in Design-mode, choose “Modify” and then “Change Parameters”
3. Click on the Expression-field for the parameter you want to change, and enter your value.
4. After editing, click “OK” the model is ready to export for print

Tips to decide the correct parameters:

• The spice glass diameter and length is the minimum value for the slot parameters, but you should add some tolerance.
• Change number of slots to fit the print area.
• The total external width = (slot width + row space) * number of slots.
• Divide the drawer internal measurements with the spice glass diameter + wanted space between slots, to get a starting point for number of slots. (Mine was 490 mm, so I ended up with 5 * 42 mm slots with 6 mm row space. This gave 2 * 240 mm modules with a 5 mm tolerance on each side.)

Printing:

I separated the main body and the connectors and printed both in the original position.

Support should not be needed, but the connector slots needed minor cleaning up due to issues with the bridging on my print. I will try to print with the connectors in position. With a space/tolerance by 0,2 mm, I hope the connectors will act as support without fusing.

Use a rim to secure the small squares in the corners.
