Summary

This IPA tank strainer basket fits the IKEA 365+ food containers (1.4 l). It's comprised of 3 parts that snap into each other partly through snap-fit joints. I also added a hook that fits the edge of the container to let residual IPA drain after rinsing my resin parts. When placed inside the container, the hook bends aside, so that the basket rests evenly on the container bottom.

While designing this, I got inspired by other builds already available on thingiverse, such as https://www.thingiverse.com/thing:2867926

EDIT 7/16/2020:
I've made some modifications to the original design (..._improvedVersion).
The lattice is now thinner and optimized for printing with a 0.4 mm nozzle. Since the slicing software no longer has to fill the gaps between the walls, it also prints significantly faster.
Furthermore, I've increased the clearance between the connecting pins of the hook and the basket, so that the hook can move more easily. If the clearance is too large, simply use the the hook STL of the original version.
