Description

PDF

In case you print several of these filament swatches, you might need a storage solution.

Here is a configurable one. You can even add little pegboard nubs to fix your swatches to a p-slot type pegboard. This box is based on the configurable box from Jaxel. Thanks a lot!

To customize, install OpenSCAD on your own computer and follow the customizing instructions on this thing page.

Bugfix in V4: Thanks to Adam the lid and box are now level and ready for printing.

Update in V5: Thanks to DomDomDom for the idea to use it for dia frames and make a side-by-side-version.

You can customize:

  • 3 lines of text (Default: Filament swatches)

  • The number of swatches to hold

  • Number of columns of swatches side-by-side! Massive swatch collections possible. STL for 2x40 and 3x40 swatches included!

  • Wether pegboard nubs are to be included (for P-SLOT peg board type)

If you like it, please have a look at all my customizable creations. There are configurable-text-based creations, multi-line label, gadget display stand, sweeping name plate, bunting banner, customizable text box III, pyramid text, name plate, Customizable text box with lid and round text. Have also a look at my configurable pack of dogs, rabbits, reindeers and santas. There are also useful coat hangers and finger toys.
