Summary

I was printing a set of Husker83's stackable drawers, when I realized I needed a different drawer height and divider configuration. After an hour struggling with Blender and Tinkercad, and nearly throwing my laptop across the room in frustration, I decided to return to my coder roots and build something similar in OpenSCAD.

Now you can make your own drawer set in any (reasonable) size, with any (reasonable) dimensions and regular divider configuration. Each drawer (and corresponding base) can also be a different height, but as long as all your drawers have the same width and depth, you can stack them to the ceiling. Note that you'd be specifying the internal dimensions of the drawer, which I think are far more useful than giving external dimensions.

Like Husker83's Thing, you need to set the following in your slicer for best results:

  • Line width: 0.5mm (using a 0.4mm nozzle)
  • Layer height: 0.28mm

Unlike Husker83's Thing, I chose to make the side walls flat, and reduce the infill to 15%. That dramatically cuts filament usage for a slightly-larger single-compartment drawer configuration (Cura estimates):

  • Base: ~48g
  • Drawer ~49g

UPDATE 2020-Oct-28: Added a drawer specifically designed for 18650 lithium-ion batteries. This accommodates 12 batteries arranged lengthwise in 2 slots, with a narrower central slot for battery holders, connectors or other stuff.
