Modular Storage Box: https://makerworld.com/en/models/2373502-bambu-lab-modular-storage-box-v4#profileId-2598014

There are plenty of storage boxes out there, but I love this one - because it actually lets me store all my tools in one place. This is a 3-teir storage box with enough of space to store all my Bambu gears in it. To make it even better, I actually designed two additional trays specifically for my need.

The total print time came in right around 17 hours and 34 minutes. And honestly? I am thinking about adding an extra tier - so I have more room to add few more gears to it.

If you want a super clean, expandable bench setup, go ahead download and print the 3D files free from MakerWorld.com. The links to all the 3D models are provided in the description below. Print these before you print anything else.
