Product description
Introducing BinLink storage system : modular, customizable, sleek. With various bin sizes, plus drawers and boxes.
The reason behind this project
I absolutely love 3D-printed storage systems, but there's one thing I don't like about them: how the bins connect to each other. With most systems out there, you need to print a base grid or tiny connecting pieces, which is a bit of a hassle. And the attempts at interconnecting storage systems are not aestheticly pleasing. That's why I came up with this new design! I wanted interlocking bins of various sizes that can connect on each side but with a sleek and simple design.
I've also added small bumps on the inside, which means you can add accessories and customise each bin to a dedicated task.
And to create custom storage boxes, I've adapted my SnapLock model to accommodate the bins.
How to choose the size
The standard bin, Bin_1x1x1, is 60x60x50mm outer dimensions.
All the dimensions in the STL names are based on those dimensions*
Every bin is named as follow : Bin_length x width x height
The other flat components such as lids are named : Lid_length x width
*The other bins are not exact multiples of the standard bin as I take into account the interconnecting part
Test print
I encourage you to test the fit by printing 2 Bin_1x1x0.5
It should be a nice, snug fit, but not so tight that it's impossible to split.
Printing settings
All the STLs are oriented to be printed directly
No support needed
You can use any material
The sweet spot between material use and rigidity for me is 2 walls ans 5% infill with a 0.4mm nozzle (bigger nozzle should work as well)
Accessories
You can even put the bins on their side to act as drawers.
For the moment I have designed several accessories that fit inside or outside the bins :
- Drawers (I used the plastic's elasticity to lock them in place while closed)
- Assembled drawer
- Screw drawer
- Lid (to close any bin
- Screw organizer
- Tray
- Battery holder
- Pen holder
- SnapLock storage box
Feel free to give me some feedback if you give this project a try :)
