A 3D-printable model inspired by the Space Shuttle Endeavour featuring an open payload bay with a functional 4-arm scissor-lift mechanism.
Manually pull up on the internal storage tray to expand the scissor linkage, raising your SD cards, micro-SD cards, USB drives, etc. to the top for easy access.
Features:
Shuttle-inspired fuselage with an open cargo bay
4-arm scissor linkage mechanism for rising storage
Internal storage tray for SD cards, micro-SD cards, and USB drives
These settings are recommended starting points for FDM 3D printers using PLA. Adjust them based on your printer and the geometry of each part.
Dimensions:(when the tray is stored in the fuselage):
Parameter | Dimension |
|---|---|
Overall length (nose to tail) | 243 mm |
Overall width (wingtip to wingtip) | 172 mm |
Overall height | 55 mm |
Minimum build plate size | 256 × 256 mm |
The model is 243 × 172 mm and a total height of 55 mm(when scissor-lift tray is not lifted)
Setting | Recommendation |
|---|---|
Material | PLA |
Nozzle diameter | 0.4 mm |
Layer height | 0.16–0.20 mm |
Wall loops | 3 |
Infill | 15–20% |
Supports | Only where necessary |
Build plate adhesion | Brim if needed |
Print speed | Standard PLA profile for your printer |
Build plate size | 256 × 256 mm minimum recommended; verify against the largest STL |
Assembly Guide:
1. Print and prepare the parts
Print the shuttle fuselage, storage tray, and all five X-lift components listed above. Remove supports, clean the pivot holes, and check the sliding slots for leftover material.
2. Assemble the scissor linkages
Take two scissor arms and arrange them in an X configuration. Align their centre holes and insert a rivet to create the central pivot.
Repeat this for the second linkage. You should now have two X-shaped mechanisms.
3. Connect the linkages
Position the two X-shaped mechanisms parallel to each other, one on each side of the payload bay. Connect the corresponding arms using the crossbars to keep both linkages aligned during movement.
4. Attach the base rails
Position the base rails inside the shuttle fuselage. Connect the lower ends of the scissor arms to the designated pivot and sliding points using the provided pins.
Ensure that the sliding ends can travel freely along their slots.
5. Attach the top rails
Connect the upper ends of the scissor arms to the top rails using the provided pins. Make sure both sides are aligned and that the rails remain parallel.
6. Install the storage tray
Position the storage tray above the lifting mechanism and attach it to the top rails. Check that it sits level and does not interfere with the fuselage.
7. Test the mechanism
Manually pull the storage tray upwards. The scissor arms should expand, raising the tray out of the payload bay. Push it back down to retract the mechanism.
Tip: Check that all pivot joints move freely before using the organizer.
