SD Card Caddy

You can never have too much SD card storage!

Hi there, ever-supportive, wonderful people! Yes, it's a modified version of the 1x1 caddy that has slots for SD cards! The fun part of this design was keeping it looking consistent with the existing open-topped caddy designs by making sure the top of the insert was square, and not a trimmed-down rectangular thing.

When I first developed this idea, the SD slots were in the inner, not the outer part, and the inner was exposed through the front. However, the dimensions of an SD card meant that they couldn't sit flat, and so were on a weird oblique plane, with corners sticking out bizarrely. Fortunately, I saw sense and just integrated the slots into the outer instead, which also looks much more consistent with the existing components.

Printing Tips

Nothing too tricky here - no moving parts, just bits that fit together, and the tolerances are generous. The parts print upright, like so:

Final Thoughts

I have one other caddy element under way - a tape dispenser! - but that's the last of the planned parts. If there's anything that would be particularly useful, though, feel free to suggest in the comments! I'll be moving on to other things, but it's always fun to return to projects like this and extend them :)
