@WisGal64 Are you looking for something in particular? I'd be happy to make/model/print something and ship it to you if you'd like

Yes! I'm looking for inserts for my apache 1800 case. But I think I found some on amazon that may work.
Thank you for the offer

@krisacero for your black cases above, where are you sourcing your hinge pins...or are they clip in somehow? Wanting to make sure I'm ready for when my gear shows up.
@hunt_ak Yes, it calls officially for a m3x30 screw, however I use 3mmx30mm stainless pins like these:
https://a.co/d/0eJT2M96One note, the parametric box design has a tight fit as it's accounting for the threads in a screw and I hadn't designed ones explicitly for screws. You can use either an 1/8" bit and get close and use a tiny dot of super glue on the edges,or if you happen to have a 3mm bit or a #31 bit to ream the holes on the box itself, otherwise if you hamfist it like me with a pair of channel-locks you'll crack the part

I made this one that has no hinges. Just put a lid on top.

@afkar7 I had tried this one before I modeled the one I did since I store it in a medicine cabinet and reaching from the side was causing me to jostle other things on the shelf. It's a solid model though!

I like the one you did but it isn’t supported on the A-1 mini. Thanks for sharing the info on those 30mm pins. I might have to try them now.

Do share. I have the Apache 1800 as well. I’m currently using the foam inserts it came with, just pulling out squares, but I’m quickly running out of space.

@afkar7 ahh rats, I forgot about the size limitations… I’m a bit spoiled with the H2C compared to some of the printers I’ve owned over the years

I should have just went with the A1 to start. I get bitter when I want to print something that doesn't work on the mini. lol

Well... the one I thought would work, I misread the description, it's for 2ml vials and saw a note that it was frequently returned.
I have a plan though.. lol going to pick up some EVA high density foam, make a 3 layer system, should fit 140 - 160 vials if I do it right

Printed this last night it’s perfect for all my pens.

Same! I'm waiting for the A2L to show up as refurbed on my local distributer's Shopee/Lazada page and I'm going to upgrade to that ASAP.
My A1mini was "refurbed" but I can't see how. Every thread was brand new. The only limitation was that the 1 year warranty can't be transferred onto whoever I sell/gift it to.

I asked AI, and you can add it later for the same price I pulled the trigger on the Bambu A1mini. I found this case to print. https://makerworld.com/en/models/2048540-snaplock-storage-box-3ml-vials?from=search#profileId-2210716

@Stevepep Great choice. That's a great printer for a beginner. Its what I would have recommended for a ~$200 budget.

@Stevepep The X2D is a great printer! I love mine

Cool find if you have the Apache 1800. I’ll make a separate post, but while on the subject.
Stores 140 vials, near perfect fit.If you get 2 of these, take the insert out and stack two of them in the 1800. I’ll use the boxes for other supplies.

@snake-pepskin I like this idea! I will be abandoning the EVA foam idea, it ended up being cost-prohibitive.

I would love to buy a 3d printer. But I tried to work in that TinkerCad and couldn’t figure it out…
@Commander I use Sharpr3d it takes a bit to learn but it’s super easy once you get it. You can get started by just downloading stuff people already created on makers world. I have designed and printed a bunch of stuff. It’s a very cool hobby but time consuming and you start looking at things completely differently.

Bow complicated is it just to print files people already created? I read there is a lot of settings and different nozzles a d stuff like that.
@Commander If this were 4 years ago I would say it were more of a concern. Nowadays with a <$250 printer from BambuLabs its almost painlessly simple.
A lot of the Bambu stuff if you just see it from the phone app, you can print directly from there, and they encourage creators to pre-slice the files for you

@Commander it’s super easy pick something on makers world and it will open it in Bambu labs. Hit print and that it. Designing stuff can get complicated but I am living Sharpr3d
