A4 Magazine & Kids Drawing Holder

This holder came about as a simple house project. 

One evening, my wife and I wanted to tidy up our kid's shelf space, which was full of drawings, books and magazines. We quickly realized that we didn't really have any organizers to sort everything properly. I thought about printing one (since it was holiday time, the stores were closed), but after looking online, nothing really caught my eye - so I figured, maybe I should make one myself?

And that's how this simple organizer came to life. 

It took three tries to get it both right and aesthetically pleasing.

1st print - White - had wrong orientation, cooling and wall speed issues, that is why there are extruded layers lines all around.

2nd print - Nebula Purple - similar problems. Tried to fix it with adaptive layers and slower outer walls, but that caused the same issue and the hole lost it's shape.

3rd print - Burnt Titanium - This was the one that I was happy with. Changed the orientation - the tall wall was on the other side of the plate, away from fan. Seam painted on the inside corner, inner and outer wall speed matched and it worked like a charm. There are still visible layer bands on the inside but they don't affect functionality and outside aesthetics.

But all three of them serve their purpose.

LABEL NOTES:

Customizable - label text can be edited directly in BambuStudio; 

The label model includes built-in borders so letters do not interfere with the viewing window and doesn't affect fitment;

A physical border may or may not be visible depending on nozzle size, line width and slicer settings;

The label is designed to look clean with or without a visible border.

Label size - 36x84.8, 0.6mm thick base.

PRINT NOTES:

Print-in-place - no supports required;

Recommended orientation -  place tall wall away from the part cooling fan;

Seam - intentionally hidden on the inside, in one of the tall corners;

Matching inner and outer wall speeds - provided the best surface quality. Slower wall speeds are intentional due to the tall vertical walls;

Visible layer bands may appear on the inside depending on filament and cooling, but do not affect functionality;

External edges are gently rounded for a more comfortable user experience.

Profile provided and optimized for PLA with a 0.4mm nozzle;

Layer height: 0.2mm - switching to 0.24 or 0.28 layer height introduced G-code issues during testing; 0.2 also provided the best surface finish (and also explains the long print time)

Base is 4mm thick, 100% infill for stability.

Walls are 2mm thick for rigidity and stability;

Cooling - Aux fan set to 70% to stabilize tall vertical walls.

Printed on BambuLabs P1S.

Despite the longer print time, the result is a rigid, stable organizer for daily use.

Remixes and material experiments (e.g. wood PLA) are welcome - feel free to share your results.
