A1 Side Storage - now with optional handle!

If you would like to use the filament used in the photos, that can be found here https://amzn.to/3CDGcyJ , its called eSun eMarble filament and it makes everything look wicked, I highly recommend.

Update (5th Jan 2025): Optional handle!! Due to popular demand, I have made a clip on handle accessory that takes 5-10 minutes to print that you can snap straight into the existing model, this should help out anyone that has been having troubles with the design so far. To print this simply select the “optional handle” print profile (once it gets verified). Or check out the seperate project here https://makerworld.com/en/models/950341#profileId-918154 

Update (2nd Jan 2025): V2 has arrived, be sure to check out https://makerworld.com/en/models/937484#profileId-902572!!

Update (31st Dec 2024): Thank you all for the response to this build, its been great to hear people's feedback and comments. In response I have updated the original design, I have added some ripples to the top to stop the movement back and forth when the container is slid out, as well as updating some dimensions to more seamlessly integrate the exhaust port as well as tighten up the case tolerances against the printer to reduce movement. I have added two new print profiles according to this, the first of which is the updated print for both the case and the internals, the second is a print for just the case (external component) for those who have printed the initial design and already have the internal component. Also tree supports have been added for easier removal as well! Thank you all again, please provide any feedback as I'm happy to make modifications!! 

I've seen some models for A1 mini side storage containers and thought I should make one for my A1 since there was nothing out there. This is a little drawer that sits just below the screen so it doesn't take up any additional space the printer is already using, and gives you enough space to put either all the spare screws / oil / lubricants / tools that came with the printer, is just long enough to fit the swatch set that comes with the printer as well if you'd like to keep that in there? Anyway yeah let me know if there are any additions you'd like, happy to keep working on it just want to know what people want! Thanks for stoppin' by.

The profile attached is 0.28mm layer height and 5% infill, allowing for a fast print, there aren't any fine details in the print so it doesn't hinder quality or strength either. I have used the profile for both Bambu PLA and eSun eMarble filament, both of which turned out great, with smooth movements but no wobbling.

Also, the model behind my box is the A1 Z-axis drag chain https://makerworld.com/en/models/707695?from=search#profileId-637827 - highly recommend it! This container has been designed to sit flush against that model, but can be used without it as well.
