A small, strong case with a collection of optional inserts for different uses.
Case
Use a section of 1.75mm filament inside the hinge to connect the lid to the base. This can be a standalone case or you can add inserts for more functionality. As requested, I have included the following lids with text to label the contents of your case:
Blank Lid (default and easiest to print)
AA Lid
AAA Lid
9V Lid
Digital Media Lid
Nozzle Lid
Print Settings
Base and Lid can be printed with 3 perimeters and 0% infill. Using these settings, most walls will be solid. The combined print time was just over 3 hours for me.
Optional Inserts
Battery Holders
AA Holder – fits up to 6 AA batteries
AAA Holder – Version 1 fits up to 6 AAA batteries, Version 2 (currently untested) holds up to 8 batteries
9V Holder – fits up to 2 9V batteries
Digital Storage Holders – Can be used together or separately
MicroSD Card Holder – fits up to 12 MicroSD cards in the lower section

Dividers
Full Divider – Splits the entire case into 2 compartments
Upper Divider – adds 2 compartments on top – Can be used with the Lower Divider
Lower Divider – adds 2 compartments on bottom – Can be used with the Upper Divider
Nozzle Holders – Can be used together or separately
Upper Nozzle Holder – fits 14 standard nozzles (MK8 or E3D V6)
Lower Nozzle Holder – fits 14 standard nozzles (MK8 or E3D V6)
Print Settings
No special print settings are needed for any of the inserts. I used 2 perimeters and 10% infill. Print times range from 35 minutes to 2 hours, depending on which insert(s) you choose to use.
