A remix of the Resistor Dispenser by @Yexo, but now with thicker caps that identify the value of the resistor.

I liked the original model by @Yexo, but I wanted to have an easy indication of what type of resistor is inside, but why? Resistors are striped to indicate their values.

  1. I plan on storing these in a drawer, so looking at the lid I want to be able to easily identify them.
  2. I am colorblind, so determining the values is quite the challenge (even if I remember what the color coding means).

On top of the text cutouts there are also indents for braille, these can possibly be filled with small pins to create proper braille. Just using the indents is possible but not ideal, the text is purposefully short and describes a resistor (R) and the corresponding value. If there are any mistakes in the translation please leave a message, so I can change it.

Construction

Construction is easy, wrap the resistor leads around your finger and slot it inside the dispenser and then place the cap on top.

Printing

The STLs are already positioned correctly for printing, I printed it on a modded Ender 3 V2 Neo so I imagine most printers will do fine.
I used the following settings:

  • Layer height: 0.3 mm
  • First layer height: 0.35 mm
  • Perimeters: 3
  • Solid Layers top & bottom: 3
  • Infill density: 15%
  • Infill pattern: Adaptive Cubic

Additional values for resistors

Initially I've created the values that I needed, 3K9, 10K, 20K, if you want another value just leave a comment and I can upload that.
