Dymo label maker and its tapes are now engridded.

The IKEA ALEX drawers are now 58% filled but only 9% gridfinitized. Need more bins! But the good news is, I only need to design and print three or four more holders to completely organize and store the pile of tools that's been sitting in the middle of the room since we moved in in 2022. Almost there...

🧵 4/N

I think I'm getting the hang of designing plastic parts that act like plastic.

The next step in the office organization project is an IKEA BESTÅ that is a smidge too low for the Roomba to get under. So I made a foot for its legs. It snaps on, stays on, and snaps off.

The square cutout on the bottom is for a nonslip rubber pad. The six small holes are to create columns of perimeter to stiffen the load bearing area.

I lined the drawers of this IKEA ALEX with 30 gauge* galvanized steel, as one does. Then I dropped in magnetized Gridfinity base plates. Each drawer is 14 by 10 Gridfinity units, though the back couple of rows are hard to access.

* 30 gauge = 0.305mm

#visiblemending #zurcido #arreglos #IkeaHacks BabyGuiri tuvo una fase de morderse la ropa. Esta sábana tenía no solo desgarrones, sino infinidad de pequeños agujeritos. Las opciones eran hacer un parche con la funda de almohada, o coser cinta al bies. Las dos opciones eran visibles y esta es más fácil para una principiante. Hace dos semanas habría pensado que esto estaba más allá de mi capacidad.

Han sido entre dos y tres horas de trabajo. La sábana nueva cuesta 30 euros.

3D Printing: IKEA PS Endcaps

I put 2 of my IKEA PS cabinets on top of each other. To do this, I sawed off the legs of the top cabinet. Because I had done another project with the cabinet some time ago, I had of course wasted the end caps and needed new ones quickly. So I just designed a few replacement caps. Maybe someone else can use them, they fit all square tubes with an inner diameter of 17.5 mm and an outer diameter of 20 mm.

The endcaps at thingisverse.
