Unfortunately, the storage boxes in which I keep my strings are no longer sold in Germany. I searched for alternatives, but could not find anything fairly, so I had to find something else. I then opened the CAD program and designed something and that is what I made: because the surfaces are somewhat …

-It was actually the first thing I started to print with the help of the 3D printer of my work and the main reason why I decided to get my own 3D printer last fall when I hung the machine to print them lol
In the end I did not use the string -reels because the new location for the string machine did not have nearby and I wanted a way to keep them sealed because of the high humidity in my basement, but quickly ahead 9 months later I now have 3 printers and an upgrade of my first printer in the process.
While I looked at Partsbin -Type solution for my implementation storage, I came across the MultiBoard project
www.multiboard.io
Especially the Multibin system, the stock 1 x 1 units looked like they work well for implementation storage comparable to parts bins, but realized me with a few tweaks that I could also use them for storing stringhaters
Officially, the bins are only 4 units high (1 CU = 50 x 50 mm) for the purpose of printability – they become more difficult to print without shrinking, VFD or shrinkage goes higher.
I finally expanded the standard 4 x 4 x 4 and 1 x 4 x 4 shells to 5 x 5 x 4.5 and 1 x 5 x 4.5 respectively
4.5 CU matches the standard Yonex 200m coils, but 1/2 units are only support for height (depth when used vertically), so I had to go with a full 5 units for the other dimensions (height when vertical)
I also had to adjust the drawers myself to fit.
I also removed the Stocklabel holder because I thought it was ugly and made it flat because I wanted to use my own labels and added a hole and TPU wrap to implement the rope
My goal was to keep a string in the trays environmentally friendly (as much as possible with 3D prints), so I added TPU to the front of the upper lady stop and used the stock fins in front of the holes (against printed j. TPU)
In retrospect, I could probably have used less material and I went with the simple scale with the holes or rails, but you lose some functionality as they attach to each other with rails
She printed it was difficult because their large size actually maximized the print volume on my X1C and A1 printers. Needs many trial and error and coordination institutions for usable prints. Another disadvantage is that they use a lot of material – the 5 x 5 x 4.5 CU -Shell uses approximately 1.1 kg of filament
It is absolutely developed too much and not very efficient space or material, but it lets me use the same modular system for string storage as my transmission tulips and tools
The modular nature of the bins also means that I can use it to measure my strings
Eventually I set the project aside because I was streaming and other things, but once I knew my new drawing machine, I knew I had to work to set it up. So far I got the first 3 rows of tiles up
And most bins and drawer for the strings done.
For the drawers I tried to get the transparent PETG as transparent as possible, but there are limitations to how transparent you can get it for a thin walled object
This is still a big work going on- I still have to print all the container and draws for the implementation tulips and tools
Also received an early prototype for racket holder using the base multiboard pins that add slots – I think maybe I could add some TPU and the final version
I also have to print at least 30-40 more tiles to get it up from the wall and make the holder and board for the tools (will have it with more adapted designs)
Still a long way to go, but for now I got the strings in their new home 🙂
