Need to organize your space, but hate the long print times that come with it? The SwiftStack System is here for you. The ultra-fast, stackable vase-mode organizers have been designed aiming the balance between speed and strengh.

This system was designed from the ground up to maximize the strengths of vase-mode printing, resulting in sturdy, consistent, and remarkably swift prints. A standard ~10x10x10 cm organizer prints in ~50 min using only ~30 grams of filament, making organization both quick and economical. 

I'm providing some common variations as print profiles, but my parametric model offers more than 1200 unique variations: you have complete control to create the perfect stackable storage solution for your needs.

Key Features

• Massively Customizable: With 1200 distinct organizers to choose from, you can select the perfect combination of:
  • Tested and verified sizes from 5-30 cm on X/Y and up to 34cm on Z!
  • Choose whether you want handles or prefer a sleek, handle-free design.
  • Pick from three different texture levels (Light, Normal, Strong) to match your aesthetic.
• Intelligently Stackable: As a core feature of the SwiftStack System, these boxes are designed with precise tolerances to stack perfectly on top of each other and align neatly side-by-side, creating a clean, modular organization system.
• Strength-Oriented Design: The models are not just simple shapes. They have been carefully designed to produce strong and durable prints, even in vase mode.

• Ultra-Fast Printing & Material-Efficient: By leveraging vase mode, these organizers print in a fraction of the time and with significantly less material than traditionally modeled boxes.

   

How to Print: A Simple Step-by-Step Guide: 

A) Leverage the parametric model:

     1. Select X, Y, and Z units in addition to texture strengh and whether you want a handle or not

     2. Download any of my print profiles and mimic the printing settings for optimum results

B) Get one of the off-the-shelf printing profiles. I pre-prepared some print profiles ready for printing.

1. Choose whether to have handles and the desired height. Download the Profile that matches your choice.
2. Select the printing bed with your desired XY dimensions
3. Slice & Print. Enjoy your new organizer!

System Details

Sizing Guide

Boxes use a standardized sizing system for compatibility. XY dimensions are in multiples of 5 cm, and Z dimensions are in multiples of 3 cm. To ensure a perfect fit when stacking, the actual dimensions include tolerances and adjustments and will be slightly different than the multiples.

Example: A 2x2x3 (XYZ) box corresponds to a target size of 10x10x9 cm and has actual printed dimensions of 9.850 x 9.850 x 9.725 cm

Texture Options

The system is offered in three distinct texture levels to suit your preference. The light texture might provide a more aesthethic look for some, while the strong texture will make the box sturdier. 
All print profiles are offered in normal texture. For strong or light ones, please leverage the parametric model

Light, normal, and strong texture.
** Different textures won't stack side by side, just vertically. If aligning many boxes horizontally, choose one texture and go with it.

Handle Design

Each box size and texture is available with or without handles. When you choose the handle option, the vase-mode profile cleverly prints two walls just at the height of the handle. This creates a robust and sturdy grip without compromising the speed of the main body's print.

Pro-Tips & Recommendations

• The provided print profiles have been meticulously tuned for an optimal balance of strength, speed, and material usage. That being siad, for those who wish to customize further by adding extra strengh:
  • A) Increase the amount of bottom shell layers to 51, that will make the whole base thicker.

• B) Change line width to 0.8mm (only for 0.4mm nozzles and above) – That might be helpful for bigger prints. (e.g., 4x6x6); IMPORTANT - This 0.8mm line width is not compatible with boxes with handles. The model will print, but the surface quality on the handle height will be very ugly.

   

            

   

• C) For maximum possible strength, deselect vase mode entirely and reset the default outer wall width (e.g., 0.42mm for 0.4mm nozzles). The models are manifold solids and will print perfectly as conventional objects

   

• Filament Choice: 
  • A) PETG is not recommended for larger prints, as the box might become too maleable.
  • B) When printing a model with handles, I strongly recommend using opaque filaments. The double-layered wall at the handle's height will create a visible and often undesirable effect with translucent or transparent materials. See below

• All geometries are there for your choosing, but adding handles on a 1 Z print looks weird ¯\_(ツ)_/¯
