Hello Maker!
I present to you the basic version of my new modular Storage Box System. This box is the perfect starting point to bring order to your chaos – be it in the workshop, craft room or on your desk.
The highlight is the smooth-running roller shutter (tambour door), which protects your items from dust and elegantly disappears into the housing without requiring additional space when opening.
The System Concept:
This is not just a single box! It is the cornerstone of a complete organizational system. The sturdy design offers maximum storage space on a compact footprint and is designed to be expanded with numerous inserts.
Planned Extensions (Modules):
- Drawers in various sizes
- Compartments and sorting inserts for small parts (screws, bits, etc.)
- Special holders for tools and accessories
Main Features:
- Modular & Expandable: Combine multiple boxes or upgrade them with custom-fit inserts.
- Sturdy Design: Robustly constructed for daily use in the workshop.
- Compact Footprint: Maximum storage space with minimal footprint.
- Easy Assembly (No Gluing!): The box is securely screwed together and holds firmly.
- Dust Protection: The fully closing roller shutter keeps everything clean.
- Versatile: Ideal as a screw organizer, for 3D printing accessories, electronic components or craft supplies.
Print Settings:
- Material:
- Roller Shutter: PETG (Recommended for better flexibility and durability)
- Body (Rest): PLA or PETG
- Layer Height: 0.2mm
- Infill: 15-25%
- Supports: No supports required!
- Tip: For the roller shutter slats (made of PETG), ensure good bed adhesion and clean settings (little stringing) so that it runs smoothly later.
Required Material & Assembly:
You need no glue for assembling the basic box.
Required Material (BOM):
- 8x M3 screws (length: 20mm)
Assembly Instructions:
- Print all components (roller shutter from PETG, rest from PLA/PETG).
- Mount the upper strut into the side panel.
- Insert the bottom inlay (base).
- Slide the printed roller shutter from above into the guide rails of the side panels.
- Now place the second side panel onto the assembly and then finally screw the side panel to the remaining parts
