An Industrial Designer's 3D-Printed Shop Drawer Organization System
Alexandre Chappel's total organization porn
Norway-based industrial designer Alexandre Chappel has completed the fantasy many of us dream of: Organizing all of the contents in the drawers of our workspaces.
To do it, he designed an insanely comprehensive system of modular bins that can hold just about anything, and lock into place with a grid system.
The bins can be 3D printed with even a small printer, with some of the larger pieces being printed in halves.
Bins do double- and triple-duty with more space beneath, for less-used items.
Here's a look at his system in action:

Chappel, who has transitioned from doing ID to becoming a full-time content creator, is selling the .stl files for the system here.

As a fellow industrial designer (currently studying) I like
the idea of making your own organizers by 3d printing. This allows you to make
organizers that can snugly fit your tools and equipment (regardless of size or shape)
into your drawers, whether bought, or custom made you can make the most out of
the space rather than buying a regular injection molded one that may leave some
useless gaps in drawers for things to fall and get lost. 3D printing may also
be more environment friendly depending on what material you are printing (as
PLA is made from fermented sugar) you will also be able to choose whatever
color you desire and even color code certain tools in some way. My only problem
with this is that it may take very long to print all the parts, may using another
process like loser cutting may help speed up the process.
