I don't think the "it would need an extra step to get up there" is a good argument against the flip down (definitely flip down, not flip up) step or lower cubby. You only need to get up to the second step on you step ladder, it'll take at least another 40 years before you can't step directly onto the second step from the ground anymore, so a similar height flip down step or cubby would work fine. I'd personally choose the cubby, but wouldn't make it directional in the direction you showed. Flip it 90 degrees and make it storage for stuff like filament, or other small random stuff you don't need to grab often. The long cubby won't work, since your small offcuts will be stacked, and you'll always need the bottom one. The flip down step won't work because you'll never want to put something in the way of the step, so at that point why not have a permanent one? I think a platform right there to move around on would be very nice, especially if you'd get more printers. You know that step ladder will just live set up in front of your printer cabinet 95% of the time anyway, so a permanent solution is usually nicer.
I’m sure I could make something work, I’m just not sure I want something permanent there as far as a cubby goes. To reach the power strip in the back I need to be on the 3rd step so if I were to make anything the swings into position it would need to be at least that high (probably 30”ish. Plus the step ladder is useful in a couple other areas.👍🏻 thanks for commenting. 👊🏻
You should use a hose from the collector tray in the dehumidifier and run it through the wall into the bathroom. Then you will not have to empty it out all the time.
Hi Rob, I'm happy that my idea was of use to you, great idea by the way for fixing the gap between the handles 🫡. Regards to storage for filaments, etc, have you considered cutting away a strip under the 3d storage unit basically making a open area but inside the plywood area making a box to act as shelving, that way your not adding anything bulky to the front of the wall but your able to reach inside below the glass doors and store your etra parts etc. As always, brother 💯% 👍 🇬🇧.
It was a great idea, thanks for suggesting it! I’ve toyed around with the idea of a cubby underneath, it’s kinda tight so I don’t know if it would be totally worth it. I’ve got a few ideas though, so time will tell what makes the most sense.
Thank you for all your comments and ideas! If you have any other suggestions let me know down below. 👊🏻
Keep going dude! You'll hit it big someday, can easily see this hitting 500k in a year
Thanks buddy! I’m really trying to put more quality videos out. Hopefully I have a couple dingers this year.🤞🏻

Nice work man! Anyone can build/make something, not everyone goes back to fine tune the projects.
Thanks buddy! I still have a ton of projects that need some fine tuning!🤣
First! 🏆 Thanks for the follow up video Rob. The improvements are pretty cool.
You were super quick to watch and comment!😂 thanks man!👊🏻
before start this video, I have an idea that I came up with last night. I haven't told ANYONE about the idea. If that idea's in this video...🙀
I’m saving that idea for my next video. 😉

That’s a great idea! I’m curious to see how much moister it pulls out this summer, and go from there. Thanks for suggesting that. 👊🏻
