Build Tray Lids — for Modular Organizer System

Description

These lids are for the Build Tray Modular Organizer system.  There are non snap-fit and snap-fit versions.  The non snap-fit versions can be used with both the non snap-fit trays and snap-fit trays, whereas the snap-fit versions only work with the snap-fit trays.

Snap-fit Lids

The snap-fit lids can be used with the following snap-fit trays:

Non Snap-fit Lids

The non snap-fit lids can be used with the snap-fit trays found above or the following trays below:

Features

• Snap-fit protrusions on the bottom of each snap-fit lid

• Separation tolerance - the snap-fits were designed with approx. 0.4 - 0.8 mm of tolerance so the lids could be pulled apart slightly in order to pull or pry them apart.  Pull or pry the lids apart at the corners using a fingernail or pry tool.

Print Settings

These are the settings used for the printed versions shown in the images:

• Material: PETG

• Layer height: 0.2 mm

• Infill: 15% - 25%

• Infill pattern: Gyroid

• Perimeters: 3 or more

• Supports: Yes or no, depending on the orientation chosen

Print Notes

• If possible, paint the seams in your slicer away from the vertical wall portion of the snap-fit protrusions.  I usually put the seam on the wall between the corner and snap-fit protrusion by painting the inside and outside wall between those two points.  It is best for proper snapping if the seam is not on the inside or outside wall where the protrusion is located, put the seam to the left or right of the protrusion.

• Any warping, even a small amount, might mess up the lid functionality so make sure your lids stay flat on the heat bed.  I use Dimafix glue on smooth PEI sheets and have zero warping issues. I also have success without glue on satin and textured sheets for the smaller lids that print quicker.  The build tray, 2x4, and 2x2 lids I use glue to be safe.
