Summary

If you need desktop organizer that will print on a modestly-sized (Prusa) print bed and you want to organize the same things I do, this is the desktop organizer for you.

Perhaps, like me, you're part of a generation that still uses "envelopes" to send pieces of "paper" that have words "written" on them with a "pen" to friends and creditors. And, maybe, also like me, you draw the line at "scotch-taping" pieces of paper to my monitor, preferring Post-its.

One of the problems with habits like that is you end up needing a place to store the raw supplies, preferably close at hand. Like on your desktop. Which seems to require something placed on the desktop where these supplies can be gathered and, you might say, organized. So here it is: (another) desktop organizer.

OK, I've had a bit of fun with this Summary. I realize that very few people have the need to organize the same stuff I want to organize. But I have enough of an ego to think that this rather individualized and unchangeable collection of containers might be exactly what someone else needs.

** The envelope container should work for most envelopes. Of course, you can put whatever fits in there. Doesn't have to be envelopes.

** The pen/pencil holders are on the small size. I find I really only need a few different writing implements at hand and everything else that would find its way into a larger pen/pencil container will be just fine in a drawer somewhere else.

** For the memory card tray, I made it for what I use - microSD cards (and an SD adapter). Again, I only need a few at hand - the rest are in a drawer. I'm considering making a cover for it, but haven't decided. [update: I decided in favor and posted a cover - two versions: one plain; one engraved with a pattern.]

** The "junk" tray could be for stamps or paper clips or whatever. The bottom edges are rounded a little to make it easier to scoop out small stuff.

** Yes. I regularly use both of those Post-it sizes. These containers hold the 3x3 -inch and the 2x1.5 -inch Post-it pads.

-- NOTE: I was requested to provide the CAD file for this - It's OpenSCAD and it's a bit messy. It also depends on two dxf files - included - whose path will need to be edited in to the OpenSCAD file. There are a lot of options at the top - I was basically using the code as a framework to play around with containers.
