These are drop in bins for the Stanley "Sortimo" style case. I have started modeling the ships in my collection and will continue as I add more. The goal is to make secure bins while maximizing space so that as many ships as possible can fit in the case. I have so far stuck with the medium compartment size, but may move to the large or custom sizes as the need arises.

Feedback is welcome, but ship requests likely won't be honored unless I own the ship. If you use these please post your makes and thoughts. I would love to see these in your collection!

This is a work in progress because I will be adding more, but the ones that are already added are pretty much final. It took me about 8 prints to get the x-wing right. This is a exhaustive process because I want them to fit securely with little room to move around, but they need to be easily removable. Finding that sweet spot has been challenging on the more complex models.

Partially inspired by thing 368666, except mine are specifically designed for the Stanley cases.

Also inspired by BoardGameGeek user xBino. I have started a thread over on BGG found here... http://boardgamegeek.com/thread/1289088/3d-printed-custom-bins-stanley-storage-box

Print out the bins and enjoy.

I use .3mm Layer height with 10% infill, normal shells on a solidoodle 4.

I have added a new file "TieFighterV2TestSlug.STL" which is for doing test prints so that you can tweak the settings for your setup without wasting too much time or material.
