That's my takeaway as well, neat project but really no better than some plywood worth half of just those extrusions. Plenty of amazing designs on the internet that don't rely on plastic parts for bearing any loads. I think for a channel about wood working AND 3D printing this is the perfect example of when *not* to cram in 3D printing unnecessarily.
It seems these days most youtube build videos should come with an #overbuilt tag lol. so ridiculous. I made a similar thing years ago with just simple wood. For most plastic containers you can use that edge lip as a slide unless what's inside is super heavy. There's 12mins i'll never get back. haha
I was intrigued when I saw this video in my feed. Then first seconds came and when I saw the stack of extruded aluminium profiles I got dejected. Sorry, but these profiles alone cost more than all furniture in my office/hobby space combined, except for monitor stand and chair.
Nice project but not practical for home DIY for the cost of materials. Ideal for industrial or manufacturing test bench unless financial is not an issue. The V-Slot extruded alluminum are not cheap roughly $400USD for 16pcs x 1m plus other materials. You can possibly build out of wooden frame and MDF for four side shelving. I like your channel. Build another project out of would the cheapest possible cost you can use for others to build in a practical way. Well done. Cheers, VARIETECH
Quit removing my posts just because YOU want to resell extrusions at an insane price. I see your shop, Australia prices are always twice the US prices, and 400 is more than 5 times what they're worth.
You can get 16x 1000mm for $170 and 60x drop in Tee nuts and screw for $30 at Openbuilds Partstore, yeah but still too expensive for DIY project which can be done cheaper.
Learned a few things here about 3D print capabilities. I built adjustable shelves for my shop using steel conduit and wood, 12 years later I’ve never readjusted the positions.
Really don't get these negative comments. So what if it's expensive, it's still DIY. Maybe not you people particularly, but someone can and maybe will build this. Not all DIY videos need to have a budget of 50$ max. That said, great video and I love how efficiently you use your 3D prints, as in, making your own drilling templates and spacers.
Funny, I did something similar. The top board has ø20mm holes I bought that from a woodworking supplier so I can use bench dogs for clamping and such. The lower part is also in ITEM profiles on casters. But In the middle I build a box with sliding doors, since it looks way better and dust and such doesn´t get in EVERY box, I can just wipe it off and good to go.
I really like the fact that you can add on to the aluminum goddess if you want to expand it later. And for some, it may be over engineered but for others I think it's just right. Plus, it's got a modern/industrial vibe. Personally, only thing that I want huge on was the MDF on top. MDF is great but if this is going to get used a lot I would have gone with real wood on top. I won't use MDF if there I need durability. It's great for cabinets and other things but for a workbench top, it's not my thing I'll say.
Ive been working in bosch aluminum profile assembly for 2 years..from autocad design drawings and cutting ang putting those bracket and what they called T-knots.. You could make alot of things. And structure..
Interesting build. A bit expensive for what it is. You would get better performance using pan-head screws when securing the 3D parts to the plastic bins. The taper on the flat head tends to split the plastic. You want a flat surface on the plastic.
It's nice construction but the 5 hours print per screw bolt holder elements make me think he started the project before Corona even happened. Nice proof of concept 😉
Seems interesting and elegant but you could do the same thing without all the 3d printed parts if you use IKEAs trofast storage units. Those circular wooden rods can be replaced with square profiles.
i like the dowel rails and your printed connectors, but they feel a bit mismatched with the aluminium extrusion. the end product looks really nice though
Like the Ikea style aesthetics. But this isn't as cheap, easy or strong as a plywood build. Containers slide without mods into my plywood container holders. Have integrated sliding floating shelves, happy to share details if anyone's interested.
hopefully i'm not too critical , but what is the point ? in the very same IKEA you can but something really nice , add wheels and done deal . Will be more cheap , neat , and much more easier and faster to assemble
Honestly you don't need 3d printed parts in this project. You could use flanges of boxes to fix in cupboard. No need to use wooden sticks. Just use aluminium n-profile.
Nice but screws on plastic doens't last very long, they will crack the plastic 1 day soon. Wood brackets are over complicated and big. I wonder why use wood when you can use the aluminium extruded bars again, and the plastics tuppers can be easilly swap for wood boxes that last much longer and looks like a real thing. Oil/barnish on mdf never work as it didn't. Not sure if I like it or it is just trash.
thank you, yeah its the wheels the frame itself is very strong, but in this video I locked only two wheels out of 4 with all 4 locked it is less wobbly but still not rock solid, I think replacing the wheels with legs will do the job
Since we're over-engineering the f@ck out of this project, why not install lighted storage bins with solar powered SMD white LEDs with bluetooth switches so you can turn them on and off with your phone? And, maybe instead of regular shop casters, you could install stepper motors and servos to make it self driving? The cart could automatically follow you around the shop... food for thought ;-)
It's looking good on start, but final result not good. Use screw for box clipping without shim,- not good idea. Also rotate table for open back container, it is not functionality. The banal use of shelves makes unnecessary this solution.
Printed those tub hanging brackets in completely the wrong direction. If you’d rotated them end on you wouldn’t have needed supports and the layers wouldn’t be aligned in the right direction to be snapped off under load.
Cool build, good use of 3D printed components, but 8020 is not cheap, neither is the HDF or butcher block on the top, and frankly neither are those bins. For the price you paid in materials, you could likely just buy a nice bench. Also, while I respect your grasshopper skills, IRL no one uses grasshopper to do mechanical design like this. It's not the best tool for the job, but the way you're utilizing it is cool.
You can do it for a lot less if you buy full length aluminum extrusions instead of paying reseller prices on having them cut down. Its nuts to pay full price for half an extrusion., buy the full length, cut it down yourself. Hacksaws are cheap, jigsaws/anglegrinders are cheap too. Pawnshops have em all the time.
This looks very nice! Though it is unnecessarily complicated and expensive for what it is.

Anytime aluminum extrusion is involved it gets hella expensive.

It would be nice to see the finished product up front, before you start the build process
I concur
But how else would they get you to sit through an elaborate ad for some CAD software?

So good! You totally nailed the industrial / scientific IKEA furniture vibe!
With excellent design, you can install magnets on 3D prints and sticks in drawers.
Node-based CAD. That’s something I’ve never seen before. Totally wild.
"Parametric" -- as in parameter-based -- is the magic word to look for in modelling tools.
After it was ready, I really liked it.
the brackets are some next level stuff :P

My advice for the drawers use washers otherwise you get cracks
Is is PP, it wont crack soo easy but washer are great.
Красиво получилось, но сложно и дорого. Гораздо быстрее и дешевле можно было сделать из пяти кусков фанеры, фурнитура осталась бы тажа! 👍🙂

Can you still put the lids on or do the slide arms prevent that?
I think there's enough clearance to. If not, you can probably adjust the arms to give space.

You can do it for a lot less if you buy full length aluminum extrusions instead of paying reseller prices on having them cut down.

nice for hospital
Not a workbench, a storage cabinet. A bit meh
I don't see any reason doing it this way. Uglier, more complicated, slower and more expensive.
overkill...complex, expensive, time consuming. as usual.
And as usual I got ideas for other projects. But as the Dutch saying goes "de beste stuurlui staan aan wal".
