1,300% Dummy13. Printed on a single X1c. 14 rolls of filament. 2 full weeks non stop.

I designed a scale lifter for my kitchen scale to raise plates just enough so I can actually read the screen while weighing.

The top is hollow so it can fit different plate sizes or even larger bowls without needing a perfect match. I chose a hyperboloid shape to keep it strong enough for heavier plates and meals.

Printed in PLA and works like a charm.

I filmed the process and made a video and thought that could fit here.

Only things stock are: power supply, screen, one z stepper, heated bed assembly (minus the actual stock bed) and a bit of the old frame...

I bought a non-working wine fridge for $50. It was a dual-zone 100 bottle wine cooler. Turns out it's perfect as a dry box. The door seals, and the inside liner is nearly airtight. Each shelf is just a tiny bit higher than the width of a Filament roll, and it holds 4 rolls and a dessicant container on each shelf. The whole thing can hold at least 40 rolls.

I stripped out all the unnecessary stuff- the compressor, the coils, wires, circuit boards, control panels, etc. I printed some multiboard, some LED strip diffusers, and designed and printed boxes to hold the controls that I would install.

First, I wanted good air circulation, so I installed extra 12v DC fans and wired them to a timer switch. I programmed the switch to run the fans for 30 seconds every 15 minutes.

Next, I wanted to keep it at a constant, warm temperature. I got lucky, as the fridge came with a 100 watt 110v ac heater already installed. I guess that's how the dual-zone part works. I had a 110v fan already, so I mounted it to the back panel right above the heater and put them on the same circuit, so when the heater runs, so does the fan. Its connected by an old extension cord, and the fan unplug easily so I can remove the back panel. It's controlled by one of those cheap Amazon thermostats.

Finally, I installed LED strip lights. The diffusers hold them on the shelf rails, and every level has light. I wired them all up with some wire and T connectors. I stuck a full strip to the top. The entire system is controlled by one switch, and it can be dimmed.

All the wires run through a hole in the back that I sealed with silicone caulk.

Each s helf has a dessicant canister, and there's about 2 kilos of silica in there. So far it stays dry, but I don't have an accurate hygrometer, so I have no reading. They range from 10-25% humidity, depending on which one. I put them in a bag with moust salt and they all read 75%, just like they should. It's a real head scratcher.

I'm happy with it. Next thing is to mount a rack for the top to hold empty and unopened spools.

The Trashcan Hauler is for people with a long driveway who have a standard US truck hitch receiver. The design works with US trashcan from Waste Management, Able Disposable, Republic Services. This is the third edition and second model posted to MakerWorld. Please provide any feedback if you printed and tried it, thank you.

For those curious, my printer is a modded ender 3 S1 running Klipper/mainsail with: * A BigTreeTech E3EZ mainboard (which required way too much custom rewiring for my own good to keep the stock ribbon cable and outer connection points in tact) * A bed handle by Juco * A custom front plate and HDMI5 display mount by Sixpack99 * A modified version of KlackEnder (a Klicky probe) * A Taurus v5 cooling duct with a new hotend, and the mount for a KNOMI V2 display * A custom bed wiper with custom mounts for ADXL345 accelerometers * Cable chains by DKVisions and Fizzy Chickens * bed leveling spacers * A Creality light bar * a Nexigo M60 and Creality Nebula webcam for print monitoring

Took me about 3 days to print.

filament used is: PLA+

Using the print from https://makerworld.com/en/models/490866-retro-mouse-with-hot-swappable-switches#profileId-404345 which was pretty great.

Raided a Kaihl switch tester for the switches because I needed clicky switches and I usually only had linears.

Printed on an Ender V3 SE in PLA.

Just printed this guy and he is awesome. Most articulated thing I have ever printed and despite being printed on my A1 mini he is quite long. Shout out to Flexi Factory on Patreon for this model.

kumiko desk organizers have been appearing in my feed all week, took it as a sign to make my own! It’s functional. It’s beautiful. It’s deeply unnecessary. But it’s mine, and i’m very happy with how it came out :)
