MODULITH 185 Classic Filament Sample Chip Drawers

Flip through your filament samples instead of digging for them.

Every chip on edge, in its own slot. Two slotted lanes hold 80 sample chips, 40 to a lane, sorted however you like, so you see every color at a glance and pull out the one you want. The low side walls are deliberate: they leave room for your fingers.

The chip is in the download. Print one for every filament you own and put a label-maker strip with the color, the material and the brand on its flat face.

Sort them by material. Black title pieces with the material raised in white stand in the slots like a chip and divide a lane by type. Ready-to-print two-color 3MFs carry 35 titles and a blank.

Swaps in for a 1W-0.5H drawer. It is the same outside size as the 185-1W-0.5H Classic drawer, so it goes anywhere one does in a MODULITH 185 case. The grip prints in, so there is nothing to add.

The images after the first are from the GEN2 release.

GEN2 is now MODULITH. Same system, same compatibility.

WHAT'S IN THE DOWNLOAD

• The 185-1W-0.5H Classic Filament Sample Chip Drawer: 75 x 195 x 22mm, 80 chips

• The Filament Sample Chip: 29.75 x 19 x 1.75mm, with a grip window at one end and a flat face for a label

• The title pieces: two ready-to-print two-color 3MFs, one for Bambu Studio (it opens in Orca too) and one for PrusaSlicer, each a plate of 35 titles and a blank

• The blank title piece as an STL, for a single-color printer or a title of your own

THE TITLE PIECES

PLA, PLA+, PETG, PCTG, ABS, ASA, TPU, PC, PA, PP, HIPS, PVA, PVB, PEEK, PEKK, PEI, PPS, PPSU, PLA-CF, PETG-CF, PET-CF, PA-CF, PA-GF, PC-CF, ABS-GF, PPA-CF, PPS-CF, PLA-WOOD, SILK, MATTE, GALAXY, GLOW, MARBLE, SUPPORT, SPECIAL, and a blank. Delete the ones you don't need before slicing.

A title piece stands in the lane like a chip: its two legs sit in neighboring slots and the cap bridges the divider between them, so each one takes the room of two chips. The title is the top 0.6mm, so the 3MFs change filament once, at the 17.2mm layer. In both files the title is on filament 1; the piece is on filament 2 in Bambu Studio and on filament 5 in PrusaSlicer, which is set up for an MK4S with the MMU3. On a single-color printer, add a color change at that layer or print the blank piece.

WORKS WITH

Any MODULITH 185 case, wherever a 1W-0.5H drawer goes:

PRINT SETTINGS

• Filament: PLA or PETG

• Nozzle: 0.4mm

• Layer height: 0.2mm

• Supports: None

The drawer prints floor-down as exported, the chip prints flat and the title pieces print legs down. The drawer takes about 56 g of PLA and 2 h on a Prusa CORE One with a 0.4mm high-flow nozzle at 0.2mm layers, PrusaSlicer's estimate; a chip is about a gram.

WHAT YOU'LL NEED

• Filament: PLA or PETG.

• A label maker (optional): for the strip on each chip's flat face.
