The regular storage boxes set got an update today. All existing boxes are now available in a new revision with an improved corner design and there are four new boxes in the set. The title image shows all current boxes of this set.
The new 2×4 sized box is a simple addition to complete the different sizes.
Also, I added three regular boxes with additional walls in the box. If you have parts which belong together, this is a nice solution.
Each wall has a special shaped top side, where you can put a 12mm label.
As with any other boxes, the design is highly optimised for 3d print. I recommend a nozzle size of 0.4mm or 0.6mm with a layer height of 0.2mm or 0.35mm for the 0.6mm nozzle.
You will find all details and a free set of boxes on the project page. There is also a catalog with a visual overview of all boxes and sets.
If you have any questions, missed information, or simply want to provide feedback, feel free to comment below. You can also contact me on this website or on Twitter. 😄
