A1 Front Drawer v2 – Safe, Space-Saving, and Smoother Slide!

After the overwhelming response to the original A1 Front Drawer, I went back to the bench—now with over 4.5 kg of filament invested in perfecting the design!

Tired of the A1’s bed taking a swing at you mid-print?  Want a clean, efficient way to keep your tools within reach?

This drawer was made for you.

(On a side note, if you need something to cut PTFE tubes that's precise, safe, and seriously satisfying, you won't want to miss out on my Bowden Puck Pro!)

What’s New in v2:

• Significantly smoother drawer operation
• More versatile placement – works better on uneven or less supported surfaces
• Further strengthened printer connection for a rock-solid snap fit
• More fluid feel when opening and closing
• Further improved angled drawer bottom for easier retrieval

Why You’ll Love It:

• Safe & Accessible – Keep tools close without risking contact with the bed
• Bed-Clearing Design – Drawer contents stay entirely out of the print area
• Sleek, Curved Look – Integrates beautifully with the A1’s design
• Space-Saving – Smart use of front space that’s often wasted
• Angled Drawer Bottom – Makes grabbing small or thin items effortless
• Patterned Option – Saves up to ~15% filament (at the cost of longer print times)
• Snap-Fit Mounting – No screws, tools, or mods required
• Modular Printing – Mix and match: patterned or solid, with or without drawer stop

Important Notes:

• Remove Supports Quickly – For best surface quality, remove all supports within 2 hours of print completion
• Print Time Estimates – Profile includes six plates, but you’ll only need to print two max
• Clean Build Plate Required – These models use every inch of the build area—clean plate = clean print
• Best Operation – For smooth sliding, open/close from the center notch of the drawer

This v2 upgrade is the result of real-world testing, community feedback, and thousands of grams of iteration.
