SKÅDIS Parametric Bin and Shelve Designer Overview This OpenSCAD script enables you to design customizable storage bins with integrated hooks specifically for the IKEA SKÅDIS pegboard system.
The model includes parameters for dimensions, compartments, wall thickness, and hooks, allowing full customization to meet various storage needs.
The script generates a 3D model that is ready for printing.
Features Customizable Compartments: Modify horizontal and vertical divisions for organized storage.
Rounded or Flat Base: Choose between rounded or flat base designs.
Frontal Access: Set a customizable frontal drop for easier access to bin contents.
Integrated Hooks: Hooks automatically adjust based on bin dimensions and the SKÅDIS hole spacing.
Parametric Design: Modify the compartments in the script for personalized setups Parameters Compartments horizontal_compartments: Array defining horizontal divisions.
Each value represents the relative size of the compartment (e.g., [0.5, 0.5] for two equal compartments). vertical_compartments: Array defining vertical divisions.
Same structure as horizontal_compartments.
Note: To modify the compartment layout, edit the horizontal_compartments and vertical_compartments arrays directly in the script on lines 11–12.
Thickness wall_thickness: Thickness of the bin walls (default: 3 mm, divided evenly between sides).
Rounded Corners corner_radius: Radius for rounded corners of the bin (default: 5 mm).
Note: The corner_radius ensures smooth, rounded edges for a professional finish.
The value of corner_radius must not be equal to or larger than any of the bin dimensions (bin_width, bin_height, or bin_depth), as this will cause modeling errors.
For a standard “sharper” corner, set this value to a very low number (e.g., 0.5 mm).
Frontal Drop frontal_drop: Percentage of the bin height to remove for frontal access (default: 0.2 or 20%).
Base Type rounded_base: Boolean parameter to set the base type: true: Rounded base. false: Flat base (default).
SKÅDIS Hole Spacing hole_spacing: Distance between SKÅDIS holes (default: 40 mm).
Important Note: The value of hole_spacing should not be modified . 3D Print: Use the rendered model to start your print.
Recommendations Hook Infill: Use 100% infill for the hooks to ensure maximum strength and durability.
Supports: Enable tree supports in your slicer to properly print overhangs and curved sections.
Output The generated bin includes: Fully parametric dimensions.
Optional compartments for storage organization.
Integrated hooks aligned with SKÅDIS pegboard holes.
Smooth corners for a professional finish.
Enjoy designing and creating your custom SKÅDIS bins and shelves!
