Nozzle Storage Chest

myminifactory

This model was the winning entry in E3D's Toolchanger STL Design Competition April 2019 https://twitter.com/E3DOnline/status/1119308448565473281 I have created a chest for 3D printing enthusiasts to store all of their valuable treasure, i.e. NOZZLES! You can store up to 15 nozzles in the chest. Nozzle holes fit standard E3D V6 6mm threaded nozzles. The model uses 4 filaments and prints in place. The first three filaments used are standard PLA and the fourth is a flex PLA. I used the flex PLA in four ways: Flexible chest hingesA flexible lip around the nozzle hole to allow you to easily push in and pull out nozzlesFriction fit for nozzle labelsA non-slip baseYou can also print this in a single color of PLA if you do not have multiple material capability. Note: The multi colored print photographed above is an older version, but it is pretty close, just a few tweaks. However, the current version has been printed in single color and confirmed to function correctly. Also, please excuse the under extrusion and missed layers (4 Silver, 1 Gold. 1 Brown), had a clogged nozzle early on and still waiting for my MMU2S upgrade. Not going to attempt a 20hr print again until I running the 2S. Other Multi-Material Prints Check out my cults3d.com page for more multi-material models.
