Ultimate Drawer System

Intended to be the ultimate drawer system that is

• printable with FDM printing
• optimizable for anything you store in drawers
• compatible with Thingiverse's Customizer
• written for ease of improvement (which could use some improvement)

This Thing is the drawer customizer. For the shelving unit customizer, see Customizable Ultimate Drawer System Shelf. For drawer inserts (dividers) see Customizable Ultimate Drawer System Inserts.

The System

• Drawers and complementary shelving units are sized in units called "Us".
• If only one dimension is given, it is assumed to be the height and the width and depth are assumed to be 1U.
• A 1U drawer is 120 mm wide by 120 mm deep by 19 mm high.
• A 2U drawer is 120 mm wide by 120 mm deep by 39 mm high.
• Actual drawer width is 131 * Us wide - 10 mm
• Actual drawer depth is 130 * Us deep - 10 mm
• Actual drawer height is 20 * Us high - 1 mm
• A 2U shelf (or cabinet) is 131 mm wide by 130 deep by 50 mm high. (You can't (currently) make a 1U shelf.)
