A Mini Oragnizer

PRODUCT DESCRIPTION:-

I designed this 3D-printed organizer box to keep my desk and small parts sorted without dealing with flimsy plastic clips that break over time. It actually started out as a massive storage unit, which I scaled down so it could easily fit on a standard printer bed. Instead of snap-fits, the front faceplate bolts straight onto the main body using heat-set inserts, making the whole box feel super solid. Inside, there are four pull-out drawers that slide smoothly on built-in tracks, each with a curved handle so they are easy to grab. It’s a clean, sturdy little cabinet that’s great for holding extra screws, electronic components, or random tools lying around your workspace.

Step-by-Step Assembly

1. Assemble the Lower Body: Take the Bottom Back and Bottom Front pieces. Apply super glue into the four alignment holes on the rear face of the Bottom Front and along its flat mating surfaces. Insert the four horizontal rods protruding from the Bottom Back into the holes, press both halves firmly together, and check that the internal drawer grooves align smoothly.

2. Assemble the Upper Body: Locate the Top Back (with two vertical rear compartments) and Top Front (with the angled shelf and circular side pass-through holes). Apply super glue to the mating edges and alignment holes on the rear of the Top Front, align the four protruding rods of the Top Back, and press them together until the internal drawer tracks match flush.

3. Stack the Upper and Lower Bodies: Apply super glue across the top edges and four upper alignment holes of the assembled Lower Body. Align the four downward-facing rods on the underside of the Upper Body with the lower holes and press both sections together until cured.

4. Assemble the Two Drawers: For both the top and bottom drawers, apply super glue to the mating edges and four alignment rods on the Box Back (the section with square side guide tabs). Press the Box Front (with the curved handle) onto the rods until flush.

5. Install Heat-Set Inserts: Using a heated soldering iron, press six M3 heat-set inserts into the front mounting holes of the Top Front and four M3 inserts into the Bottom Front.

6. Insert Drawers and Fasten Covers: Slide the top and bottom drawers into their respective slots by aligning their rear side tabs with the internal body grooves. Place Cover Top (6 holes) and Cover Bottom (4 holes) over the front faces and tighten ten M3 screws into the heat-set inserts to retain the drawers.
