Customizable household organizers inspired by the classc game Space Invaders.

The arcade game would only hold you up for quarters but these aliens will also hold up your keys, wallet, phone, pocket knife, headphones, etc....

Key Design Features

* **Personalize**: Choose from all the classic invaders. * **Accesorize**: Many accesories to fit your needs * **Mix & Match**: Completely modular! tens of thousands of combinations * **No Hardware!** (Other than two screws for base plate to drywall) * All to scale, designed so everything fits on a 225x225 print surface.

Invaders

	12x8 7 mounts	Lowest tier invader, holds the most stuff. Isn't that always the case when you're the lowest tier?
	11x8 6 mounts	The "Jumping Jack" invader, arguabley the most memorable from the game.
	8x8 5 mounts	The Lundberg of invaders, holds the least amount of stuff. Was always the last to sneak up on you just when you thought you had the level beat.

Accessories

Not shown, a wall mount and mounting pins are also included. All accessories use the 5mm mounting pin where the wall mount uses the original 6mm pin.

Print Execution

These are large flat prints for the majority of the print time and present all the associated challenges. Please read this if you are having trouble with adhesion, warping, scaring, etc.

Misc Design Notes

Keen eyed video game purists will notice that I've taken liberties with a pixel here and there to make the characters printable and to allow space for hangers.

Models were created in blender are are based on 18.5mm per pixel.

Special Mention: Came across this https://www.thingiverse.com/thing:4118227 while trying to decide which pixels to add to the middle invader. Nice design if you need support for large headphones. The center slot idea also wound up being the best solution for my headphones as well.

Notes on Scaling

Full disclosure I had some trouble scaling these in Cura, I think the problem is that Belnder isn't the best at joining parts cleanly, your results may vary. To maintain accuracy scale parts along consistent dimensions.

TL;DR: scale 10,20,and 30 pt invaders to equal height.
