3D printing: organiser for SMD 0805
TL;DR
- A 3D-printed box organiser stores 50 strips of SMD 0805 resistors, capacitors, or similar parts.
- The design was created in FreeCAD and printed on an Anet A8, with print-ready STL files attached.
- Each strip can be up to 85 mm long, or about 20 SMD 0805 elements.
- The organiser is presented as a practical workshop storage solution that works well.

I see that recently on Elektroda it is fashionable to make your own projects and 3D prints, so I will also share my construction - especially as it is practical and works well in my workshop.
It is a box-organiser for 50 strips of resistors, capacitors or other SMD 0805 elements. Each strip can be max 85mm long (i.e. 20 elements - kits of SMD 0805 elements are often sold in such quantities).
The design was made in FreeCAD and printed on an Anet A8.

This 3D printing project makes sense to me. I haven't seen this kind of SMD boxes from a "Chinese" company. Thank you. [Read more]
What dimensions does this have? 20 pieces is a bit small in my opinion, it would be nice to be able to put 5 of these strips in one compartment. Very interesting idea. [Read more]
the whole box is 146.4 x 89 x 11.9 mm Each compartment has internal dimensions of 85 x 9.5 x 2 mm Surely this is about the most common item values? Several strips in one compartment is, in my opinion,... [Read more]
A super idea for me. Finally something I could use and would be happy to purchase (as I don't own a printer and buying and learning to print for one box is probably still overkill). I don't know how the... [Read more]
If this is the case, apart from the patent battle, I see little possibility of a fight. Because, apart from a good idea, which is itself blandly unprotected, the execution is technically very simple, so... [Read more]
In general, a very good idea, much better than cardboard or cardboard with tapes, I have a given dimension glued with tape, but it is a rather sensitive solution - the elements spill out when damaged. [Read more]
As a colleague pointed out earlier - it seems to me a much better patent to make compartments for the pieces plucked from the strip. You could fit more of them in the same capacity; and home applications... [Read more]
Patent protection in China does not actually work. Although I am not an expert on this, it has occurred to me what filing a patent looks like, how long it takes and how much it costs. Also, as far as I... [Read more]
Only the colleague is rather not interested in export to China ;) With such a patent or industrial design you can possibly fight for the local market, but it is still a battle with windmills ;) Generally,... [Read more]
Thank you all for your positive feedback. I do not intend to commercialise the idea or make money on it. The product was created for my own use and since it turned out well, I am sharing it with you.... [Read more]
To be honest, I like the idea, but do 3D printer projects where you just have to design a drawing on the computer deserve to be called DiY? Every now and then some prints appear just like on the Majserko... [Read more]
It is not just a matter of "drawing", which is not at all that trivial, but also the idea itself and its subsequent iterations, which the Author probably had to carry out. I look forward to it. ... [Read more]
Following this line of reasoning - a milling machine will do it.... A 3D printer is also a tool - just like a milling machine, I would even venture that it is more complex to use (because I don't think... [Read more]
That is some idea.... In my opinion better than bragging about prints in DiY (Author forgive me), which do not really fit into DiY as a Department. As for the milling machine vs 3D printer comparison... [Read more]
I think that we should present things that we have made ourselves. Since the author is now able to duplicate his project with a couple of buttons on a 3D printer it will still be DiY? At the moment,... [Read more]
Surely designing a 3D model does not require any skill at all and it can be done by the first better person asked around town. Honestly, I'd rather see such designs than the 64th version of the power supply... [Read more]
Yes it requires skill and knowledge, but it's just software. You design it, put it in the printer, and go to the cinema. It does itself.... By the way, I noticed something else... You got 5 pluses... [Read more]
Get a mate to invest in a printer and you'll find out for yourself how it does itself.... with cheap printers it is not so beautiful.... when you spend PLN15k on an Ultimaker etc it is easier but it doesn't... [Read more]
I recently saw on thingiverse a very cool project for SMD that doesn't require ribbon cutting. Link https://obrazki.elektroda.pl/7504689800_1572718950_thumb.jpg [Read more]
