TL;DR

Swatch cases in many sizes to store the temperature towers as filament samples.

 

Collection

tools, 3D printing

 

update 2023.0808

  • added single row 20 slot version (mk3 / mk4)
  • added single row 16 slot version (prusa mini)

 

Motivation

For all of us 3D maniacs or professionals using many many different filaments it is necessary to store the temperature towers and use them as filament swatches. That way you have swatches showing how the shine of a filament changes by temperature, how it bridges and print overhangs or holes. 

 

Let's get started

Chose the size you like to have, my recommendation is to print the biggest one fitting on your printer. Another good idea is to have one box for each kind of filament, like PLA, PETG, ASA, etc.

The naming system is pretty easy, initially there are 4 sizes for 40 to 126 swatches each.

  • box: The box with the slots to store and sort the towers.
  • lid: The lid to close the box if you need one.
  • -NN_: The number (NN) of swatches fitting into the box
  • ABCxDEF: The size in mm for the box/lid

 

If you need a special size just ask.
