FIFO Rolling Can Pantry Organizer

thingiverse

So, this is, to date, my largest and most complicated design/print yet! If you are like me and have cabinets full of canned goods - always be prepared! - you know what a hassle it is to keep those rotated so that the oldest cans can be taken first. This solves that problem. Simply drop your can into the opening on top and it will roll down to the bottom. As you take a can from the bottom opening, the next can in line will roll down to take it's place. By filling the rack from the top and taking from the bottom, you ensure that the oldest can is always pulled first. There are two versions included here. The build plate on my Tevo Tarantula is the standard 200x200 so I had to cut the model into pieces to make it fit. For those with larger beds, or those having this printed, I have also included the original model with full size panels as a ZIP file. You can ignore this if you will be printing this piece by piece. A word of warning, this does take a LOT of filament. My print utilized 351.55m and 1004g - right at, or just over, a typical 1kg roll. Use the cheapest filament you can. Looks are not important here. You can always sand it and paint it after assembly if you want.
