About the project
I designed these lidded bins when I started experimenting with different filament types. My priority was to avoid mixing waste materials as much as possible so they could be recycled easily.
The lid serves two purposes: one is to facilitate the identification of each material, and the other is to prevent debris, such as dust, from contaminating the filament. This will make recycling easier.
Moreover, I wanted to keep them relatively compact so they would not take up too much of my precious project space. Once a bin is full, I put the waste material into a dedicated bag outside my work area.
Print Settings
- Filament: I recommend printing the bins and lids in PLA or PETG as they are cheap and durable enough.
- Nozzle: 0.4mm or 0.6mm for a faster printing time
- Layer height: 0.3mm with a 0.4mm nozzle / 0.36mm with a 0.6mm nozzle
- Infill: 15% Gyroid
- Shell: 1mm
- Supports: None
- Adhesion: None
Future
Please give me some recommendations for adding more filament types to the lids! I would love to expand the list with composites and rarer filament types!
