UPDATE: I've printed some bins that don't quite interlock properly while others work great. Must be the PLA difference. I think I'll make a new version soon. 

This parts box is a bit large; which I think is a good thing. Print it at 0.3mm layer height for a print that completes both portions under 12 hours. 

Support for "build plate only" is needed for the bin portion since the overhanging handle is a long bridge. I could have inverted the handle to make it more printer friendly like in my old tilt-out box but I like this aesthetic and it's worth the support to me.

The inside of the bin measures approx: 81mm x 61mm with a height varying from 57mm to 90mm.

The outside footprint is approx: 100mm x 75mm with a height of about 100mm

The walls are generally 3mm thick.

There are screw mounting holes in the back of the base. The bin tilts 62 degrees and lifts out.

I decided not to go with a nameplate holder this time. Actually, I saw another take on the tilt-out box for sale at my local hardware store. It had curves. I used that for inspiration towards the design lines rather than the straight box look I did last time. I also took into consideration pltaylor3's remix idea of making the bin removable.

I designed everything in SketchUp and exported the model as stl files.
