Sewing helper: Yarn box - Garn box - Thread box

thingiverse

I designed this box for my sister in law as she is sewing a lot and has lots of threads. The pictures are for demonstration purposes of how the box is working. In the main compartment the thread spools are stored; in the Lid you can put the little wheels with thread on them; In the large and medium drawer you can put those clips that are used on sewing machines to keep the fabric in place. There are two different sizes, that's why the drawers also come in two sizes. The last drawer is for any other tools or needles pr a small scissors you want to store somewhere close by. Currently the lid has a branding (as it is custom made for my sister in law) that's of course not mandatory. Printing this baby wasn't easy. You will need to print it on the rear bottom corner and add some supports (on the outside and a tiny bit also in the inside for one of the drawers). It weights about 240 g when completed, so uses about quarter to half of a spool (plus supports and failed prints). When printing make sure to print with a rim and to somehow mechanically attach the brim to the brim bed, using clamps or something similar. The warping force will be brutal, even with an easy to print material like PLA. I printed it with 0.4 layer height and a 0,6mm nozzle. With these settings I guess it still took me about 2 days of printing.
