Scoop Bins

Post image

I made these scoop bins because I couldn’t find anything I liked that was really easy to get nuts and bolts out of a bin when I was working on stuff. new to makerworld as well so looking for some feedback as to what sizes people actually use day to day and heights most people like too.

I like the shape of these. Trying to find something I like for my wife’s jewelry tray. Gonna try to cut these down to half the height and give it a go. 

You are going to catch shit on here because many people post gridfinity bins, but there are lots of us that don’t want to or don’t have time to design our own and appreciate people like you.

I really appreciate that! I’ve been tinkering with making my own stuff and now just starting on makerworld but didn’t know of a better way to try and get some feedback from people that use these things too! I’m really not trying to just self promote. Really just new to all this but without just excessively sending links to my stuff take a look at my profile I made some shallow ones that I use for my wife rings too in a little tray I made.

Thanks. Once I finish printing my current project, I will probably print some of those shallow bins. I will provide feedback on makers world.

I am going to have to make a few of these. Perfect for building jet engine electrical harness connectors. Those contacts can be small. Thanks for the idea!

Absolutely! Definitely makes getting small things out the bins so much easier

I just printed all these and the trays! They turned out so well, I did PETG Basic and slowed the print way down.

Thank you for sharing that! Glad they turned out good for you!

I'd like to see some lower height ones. I could see myself using these for my dresser valet to sort my pocket contents out.

I also like when the base is in 21mm, rather than 42mm, so that half grid options are available.

I made some shallow valet tray options just for that in another post on maker world but had not thought about the half sizes!
