I just wanted a box that could be printed quickly. When you need boxes like this, you need them fast.
These containers have a base dimension of 50x50x25mm and the model names are a multiplier of these dimensions.
The dividers have the number of segments as a suffix in the name.
The case is designed for transport, but is only needed for the basic size.
Design Objectives
- To be printed quickly
- Simple
- Universal to use
- Stable when stacked
- Space for a label
- Handle
- Portability
- Enclosure
- Avoid unnecessary complexity
Print Instructions
All models must be printed in vase mode!
The case is also printed in vase mode. The side with the embossed word 'Top' is labeled for future use (not while printing) and must be printed facing to any side. The bottom (also side facing during printing) is sloped upwards to hold the container and contents securely in place.
Use a 0.4mm nozzle and extrusion width for a light 4.4g print in the small undivided 1x1x1 box.
Change the extrusion width or nozzle diameter if necessary for strength.
The segmented variants may require ≤0.6mm extrusion width to print all segments, but you will quickly see this in your slicer when they are missing.
The gaps are designed to stick together, but the top layers are always continuous and retain the final shape.
If you are curious, you can play around with the print speeds and get print times of 11 minutes for the small 50x50x25mm containers.
Very handy for the last few turns of filament on your spool!
Short Disclaimer
When designing box-shaped containers, it is impossible to avoid this somewhat familiar design. Of course I was inspired by Alexandre Chapel's assortment boxes and Zack Freedman's Gridfinity.
This is the second iteration of my completely original and new design.
