RoboticsRob designed a great trash bin for printer waste, which I needed because one of my cats tries to eat any scrap plastic he can find. But now he sees the filament scraps in the trash bin and goes after them there. :( So this lid is intended to cover it up so he won't notice. If he still sees them through the little gap in the side, I may have to add a tab to the lid to cover it up – but for now, let's hope this works!

Notes:

The lid is not tight-fitting at all, since I am only trying to make the plastic scraps “out of sight, out of mind” from my cats. It's actually a little too big. If you want yours to be tighter-fitting, you may want to shrink it down a few percent. But if you just want to print something to hide the filament scraps, this will work. Since it's working for me, I don't want to waste filament on another one just yet to test a smaller size! :)
