Small Parts Storage 5 Different Ways & We Review The WeCreat Vision Laser Engraver

Published 2024-02-26
I have an empty cabinet that we are going to put 12 low profile drawers with a bunch of different organizing systems inside to see what works the best! We will be using the CNC machine, 3D Printer, store bought option and the laser engraver to make different solutions. I was provided the WeCreate laser engraver so I used that on this build and give my review of this unit at the end of the video!

  • This is a very good video! You show a number of different options and show how you can mix and match a bit to meet your needs. And I like the fact you got the kids involved. So I will be watching more videos to learn more.
  • @jimrosson6702
    What a great video Justin so many great ideas. Keep up the great work. Thanks to your boys for helping you . Thanks for sharing
  • @ZS6JON17
    Hey Justin I also blame the machine or dog when it was me Haha very funny
  • @bonacci01
    I just finished doing our kitchen utensil drawer in Gridfinity system organizers. It came out awesome !!!
  • @dian3145
    Love organizing ideas. Thanks so much! To get your box joints to snap together, adjust for the kerf in the download screen…the boys will be a little less crazy on the future runs 😁.
  • @prpman99
    Cardboard is the way to go. I've made lots of cardboard boxes for all sorts of boxes. Haven't had any fail yet. I like cheap. Being retired, time in making isn't a big issue. Thanks for the ideas.
  • @leenoble7472
    Great video and a wonderful topic that seems to plague us all. I am going to try some your gridfinity boxes and see how it goes.
  • Such a good video, I found it very interesting and now I have subscribed ! Really nice to see your shelfs and what you have done, nice simple plywood draws. I have 3d printed 100's of boxes and now I'm laser cutting just as many and found this video intresting too her you thoughts.
  • @chadgarner230
    I've been using the same laser for a couple of months now. The noise you heard typically means that it isn't level (perhaps one of the stepper motors went too far or you had it on a surface that wasn't level at some point). Often, that noise is the machine correcting that. In severe cases where it can't, you can manually level it by turning the threaded rods in the corners.

    Nice job showcasing the different kinds of hardware storage. For me, 3d printed bins were the way to go. Nothing off the shelf really suited my needs and I just got a new bambu 3d printer to replace my old ender 3 pro, so a bit of work in onshape and I can print the same basic design of whatever size I need.
  • @davidelang
    could you add a table (either in comments or description) that shows the per-drawer cost of each system. It sounds as if gridfinity ended up being your preferred option. One think to check into for gridfinity is that there are some boxes designed to print in vase mode, which can be quite a bit faster to print.
  • @matthewmalloy354
    Great job as always. Get excited each time I see a notification from your channel pop up on my screen. This was certainly a great use of space and appreciate showing different techniques. Btw which one was your favorite. Also in terms of the laser. If for some reason you are deciding not to keep it and feeling generous towards a really faithful viewer , I am a long time hobbyist and am really interested in adding a laser to my shop ;) (wink,wink) lol
  • @The_Bearded_Lady
    Very nice. Love options. For the wood boxes, if you want an easier glue set up you could use CA glue and activator to make it faster. Or you could use the tab connections like A Glimpse Inside uses so there is just friction fit that is tight and doesn't need glue.
  • @whomhead01
    Hey, check out the stackable gridfinity bins.
  • Good stuff Justin, always enjoy your videos. What was the brand of the PLA you used?
