Customizer comments, listing text, named presets, extra Models, and vendored scad-utils. Each Model is a complete article (organizers split with part). Box hull and lip are upstream. Battery, grid, hex-bit, and SD inserts live here: they expose the same body_x / body_y / body_z / wall as the empty box so the insert stays a fit, and they pack only full pockets.

Parametric Stackable Box
model.scad

|---|---|---|---|
| body_x | 80 | [40:1:160] | Interior length of the box footprint. |
| body_y | 110 | [60:1:200] | Interior width of the box footprint. |
| body_z | 47 | [25:0.5:120] | Overall height, including the stacking lip. |
| wall | 1.6 | [0.8:0.4:4] | Wall thickness. |
| body_color | #2A9D90 | color | Hull render color. |
Battery Organizer
battery-organizer.scad
| Name | Default | Range | What it does |
|---|---|---|---|

| body_z | 47 | [25:0.5:120] | Overall height, including the stacking lip. |
| wall | 1.6 | [0.8:0.4:4] | Wall thickness. The tray follows this so it still fits the box in this file. |
| battery | aa | [aaa:AAA, aa:AA, 18650:18650] | Cell type. Well diameter is the cell plus 1 mm clearance. |
Bit Organizer

|---|---|---|---|
| part | all | [all:All, tray:Tray, box:Box] | All = assembled preview. Pick a kind to export STL. |

| body_z | 47 | [25:0.5:120] | Overall height, including the stacking lip. |
| wall | 1.6 | [0.8:0.4:4] | Wall thickness. The tray follows this so it still fits the box in this file. |
| bit | hex_1_4_short | [hex_1_4_short:1/4 in short, hex_1_4_long:1/4 in long] | 1/4 in hex. Short fits in the default box; long needs Tall. |
Generic Organizer
generic-organizer.scad
| Name | Default | Range | What it does |
|---|---|---|---|
| part | all | [all:All, divider:Divider, box:Box] | All = assembled preview. Pick a kind to export STL. |

| body_z | 47 | [25:0.5:120] | Overall height, including the stacking lip. |
| wall | 1.6 | [0.8:0.4:4] | Wall thickness. The divider follows this so it still fits the box in this file. |
| grid_x | 2 | [1:1:6] | Pockets along interior length. |

Sd Organizer

| wall | 1.6 | [0.8:0.4:4] | Wall thickness. The tray follows this so it still fits the box in this file. |
| card | sd | [sd:SD, microsd:microSD (TF), mixed:Mixed] | SD, microSD, or mixed. TF uses the microSD size. Mixed leaves a TF strip. |

Presets
Standard
Default box height.
| Name | Value |
|---|---|
| body_z | 47 |
Tall
1.5× body height, matching the upstream tall variant.
| Name | Value |
|---|---|
| body_z | 70.5 |
AA
AA cells. Default well diameter.
| Name | Value |
|---|---|
| battery | aa |
AAA
AAA cells. Smaller wells, more pockets.
| Name | Value |
|---|---|
| battery | aaa |
18650
18650 cells. Larger wells, fewer pockets.
| Name | Value |
|---|---|
| battery | 18650 |
1x2
One row of two pockets. Long parts or pens.
| Name | Value |
|---|---|
| grid_x | 1 |
| grid_y | 2 |
2x2
Four pockets. Matches the upstream 2×2 divider.
| Name | Value |
|---|---|
| grid_x | 2 |

Six pockets. Screws and small hardware.
| Name | Value |
|---|---|

| grid_y | 3 |
3x3
Nine pockets. Components and beads.
| Name | Value |
|---|---|
| grid_x | 3 |

1/4 in short
1/4 in hex bits, ~25 mm. Fits the default box height.
| Name | Value |
|---|---|
| bit | hex_1_4_short |
1/4 in long
1/4 in hex bits, ~50 mm. Tall box so the bits stay under the lip. A full tray should not take a box on top if bits sit proud.
| Name | Value |
|---|---|
| bit | hex_1_4_long |
| body_z | 70.5 |
SD
Full-size SD slots. Count follows the box footprint.
| Name | Value |
|---|---|
| card | sd |
microSD
microSD (TF) slots. Count follows the box footprint.
| Name | Value |
|---|---|
| card | microsd |
Mixed
SD columns plus a microSD (TF) strip. Drops an SD column rather than growing the box.
| Name | Value |
|---|---|
| card | mixed |
- Settings: PLA, 0.2 mm layer, 2 walls, 15% gyroid infill, no supports.
- Orientation: Print the box on its floor, stacking lip up. Print the tray and the divider on their floors.
- Why: The front scoop is 35°, so it prints without supports.
- Parts: Each Model is a complete article. Empty box: Print 1× from
model.scad. Battery, hex-bit, or SD: Print 1× box and 1× tray from that file. Grid divider: Print 1× box and 1× divider fromgeneric-organizer.scad.part=allis assembled preview only — do not slice it. - Fit: Default interior is 80 × 110 × 47 mm so empty boxes, trays, and dividers stack as one family. Height may mix (Standard under Tall). On an organizer file,
body_x/body_y/body_z/wallmove the box and the insert together. Changing XY is a new family and will not nest with Standard. Pocket count follows the keepout after the front scoop; it does not grow the default box.
