Storage trays for my bench draws - 3D printed system
Nothing invented here just borrowed from the ideas already done really well out there.
The only thing here is I have settled on a 25mm grid with containers in multiples of 25 starting at 50x50
The grid is printed at 4x8 ie 100x200 and then glued together to form the larger grid for the draw

I have 3x8 and 1x8 grids to cover the full draw space.

The boxes all have the grid cut out so that they all just sit in place

In the picture is a 50x50 and a 50x75 tray
I decided not to print/include label placement as I can see what's in these, though down the track I might do a QR style label in the bottom so I can scan it for details when it's empty.
Cheers
Phil

Interested to know how long it takes to print one box - say the 50 mm square size?

It's a rare day i'd print a single and I normally print those in groups, a group of 5 50x50 by 60mm high containers takes just under 11hrs so so 1:50 per box. Originally Posted by bruceward51

In practice with the mixed sizings and the odd failure i'd say i get around 50 containers in a week ..... the reality is that a couple weeks running prints and i have all i'll need.
Also my printer is getting old and tired (bit like me) so it's not setup to be as speedy as some of the newer ones.
