HexBay - Modular Console Cabinet (PS5, PS4, Switch, Xbox, PC) - Puzzle-Build System

A modular cabinet for your consoles that you build like a puzzle. Honeycomb panels and clip-on connectors make a bay for each console: PS5, PS4, Switch, Xbox Series X/S or a PC. Hang controllers and headsets on the walls, and route every cable to one power strip.

How the system works

• Panels 160 × 160 × 8 mm (and 160 × 80 half panels) with a honeycomb that lets air through and works as a pegboard.

• Connectors L (corner), T (wall + shelf), X (cross) and I (straight) clip onto the panel edges. Ribs inside each slot press 0.1 mm per side, so they hold without glue or screws.

• Grid pitch 172 mm: every bay is 164 × n mm inside, so the same parts fit any console:

• Accessories that clip into any honeycomb cell: controller hook, headset hook, cable clips, power-strip shelf. Plus clip-on labels for each bay (PS5, PS4, SWITCH, XBOX, PC, GAMES).

• Cables: each panel edge has a 24 mm notch, and the honeycomb takes zip ties, so every console can reach one power strip at the back.

How it was checked

Every part: overhang audit 0 mm², sliced in Bambu Studio. Fit checked in code: the accessory tabs pass through a honeycomb cell without touching (and hit it when moved 2 mm, so the test is valid); the connector ribs overlap the panel by 0.1 mm per side. The renders use real console dimensions (placeholders, not the actual products).

Material and time (A1 mini, 0.20 mm, PLA, no supports)

• Panel: 2 h 04 min, 71 g. Half panel: 1 h 03 min, 35 g.

• 8 L connectors: 1 h 54 min, 55 g. 8 T: 2 h 12 min, 65 g. 4 X: 1 h 39 min, 43 g. 8 I: 1 h 45 min, 56 g.

• PS5 capsule (3 × 2 × 1): 19 panels + 68 connectors = about 1.8 kg and 55 h.

• Xbox Series X tower (1 × 1 × 2): 8 panels + 26 connectors = about 0.75 kg and 23 h.

• The full capsule in the pictures (6 × 2 × 2): 64 panels + 200 connectors = about 6 kg and 181 h. Start with one bay and grow it.

Assembly and use

1. Lay the floor panels and join them with I connectors (two per edge, 45 mm from the centre).

2. Stand the walls on L connectors; where a shelf meets a wall, use a T; where four panels meet, an X.

3. Add the back wall and hang the power-strip shelves on it, then clip in cable clips and route each cable through the edge notches.

4. Clip the controller and headset hooks into any cell: tilt the tab in and let it drop.

Loads: put heavy consoles on the bottom row, between walls. A shelf over a 3-module bay (like the PS5 one) spans 516 mm: keep it for light things (games, Switch, controllers). The system has not been load-tested yet, so start light and check. Keep the consoles' own air intakes and outlets clear; the honeycomb is open, but don't block the vents with cables.

Parametric OpenSCAD source included (grid size, panel thickness, slot fit, labels) plus the scene used for the pictures.

About this design

Designed with AI assistance and checked in code before release (see above). Pictures are 3D renders, not photos; the consoles are placeholder models with real dimensions. It is new: makes, fit reports and your own bay layouts are very welcome.
