Sharing my thoughts after using this in case it helps anyone still on the fence. I purchased this on the shop and I have 4 alex units (2 of the 6-drawer wide units with casters, and 2 of the narrow 5-drawer units). Pros - it's well designed. The components are easy to print, and the filament joints lock the pieces together securely. Everything feels very sturdy when assembled. This works great to solve the problem of making it easy to get to the otherwise inaccessible depths of the drawer Cons -For the price, it feels incomplete. There's cradles available for all the drawer variations, but the design makes it impossible to use most handle designs that slide over the opening with the wider drawer units. Normally, this wouldn't be a problem, but since the provided handles only fit one variation of the opening, if you have the 'other' version, you either have to opt for no handles, secure them slightly misaligned, or not use cradles in the front-most part of the drawer, which eliminates the benefits of this system. If you're on the fence, and you have the wide drawers, at the very least print the free drawer handle available on the site and see if it fits your unit. It's not an issue on the narrow drawers because the front face of the drawer is tall enough that there's clearance between most alternate handle designs and the top of the cradle. In the meantime, I'm opting to go handle-less on my wide Alex drawers but having handles is convenient enough that I'd almost rather waste the space in the back of the drawer
Note to the creator: I bought the models and none of the models, that I have plated so far in a slicer, have been oriented for printing. This is a super easy thing to do. Please consider this next time you release new models.
I'm glad you've continued your efficient design and true engineering. You litterally are creating a system from scratch and not having to just remix someone elses hard work. Regardless if you made this closed or not, I'm glad you keep it going and update it for normal people who have a lot of ikea stuff.
I haven't even watched the full video and I am already sold on it. I tried different variations, but nothing was what I needed. Now, I have that. Fantastic, thanks a lot!!
Very good idea with the handles. You could also design the handles so that they just clip on and can be glued with a hot glue gun instead of screwing. This saves the holes in case you want to sell the cabinet. Thank you for being here on UA-cam. I love your channel :)
This is great for the Lego community. Most of the people who build a lot use these drawers and this style of sorting is key. What I’d want is a plate in the front plate of the drawer where I could put pieces of Lego to show what is inside of the drawer. Like a map. Lego baseplate style of plate fitted with the handle.
Hi Alexandre, Big Fan of your work! Already printed a bunch of the earlier assortment boxes - funny enough until now they lived in a Alex container. Now switching to your new system! Loving your mix of great functionality and design! Keep up the good work!
I LOVE THE TRICK OF USING FILAMENT TO LOCK PIECES TOGETHER !!! I'm building a 3D printed mech keyboard where the case is made of multiple parts. Guess how I'm going to connect the parts now.
Love this! I bought all of the originals and will be buying these too to fit put my ikea desks and drawers. A fantastic effort and thank you for making these available to purchase. Cheers 👍😎🇦🇺
As always your videos are super enjoyable Alex! Don't have these cabinets but always love your approach to making things better and providing solutions! ❤
Damn I love it! I had plans to get me an Alex for my Desk, but I was holding out since my desired color was out of stock... Probably now I will already start prepping for this for when I get it! Thank you
Literally have had these for years and have been trying to find a divider system for them. Ikea used to have one ages ago but stopped selling them. This looks incredible 🙌🏻
Inspired by your organisation grid thingies I created a really similar system for my Alex drawers 2 years ago. I also chose a 40mm grid, just like you did. Recently I noticed, that the Ikea SKÅDIS system also uses a 40mm grid. You could create some shelfs or other accessories, to use your boxes on the SKÅDIS.
I'm sure it's hard to be in this situation, but you would probably have more success after accepting that Gridfinity won the standard battle. People would consider buying your designs because of the attention to detail and entertainment that you provide. I know I would.
If you bought your Alex recently the handle might not fit. It seems IKEA changed the specs a bit. The court out is different and the material is 1mm thinner. But it was easy enough to adjust the file to fit. Great system, I am a very happy customer!
I thought you'd address the slides for the drawer. I trialed a full extension slide for a drawer, which works well. That way your system isn't hampered by the lack of full access of the drawer. Great job with designing the bin system, as always a lot of preparation goes into your products.
Zack Freedman’s Gridfinity system fits the with of the standard Alex drawer perfectly, although without the fancy trays. I have been using it without any problems for a while now. The handles are a great addition though.
Which means it only solves half the problem; you are still left with the issue of being able to easily access the back 1/3 of the drawer that does not pull all the way out. Don't even get me started on the end table designs with the drawers that don't even pull half way out. >_
@@erin.anderson removing the screw and using a elastic band with the metal T on the end works well, but does not support weight, works well for the wide drawers, but not sure on the larger ones.
A consistent design theory converted to practice. Excellent work. Please provide documentation on the download site for the printed weight of each element. This could be a collateral (free) pdf which acts as a catalog for the design. This need goes to the need to compute how much filament and thus the cost of implementing a specific storage solution.
I ended up buying the pack. Unfortunately I only have an A1 Mini so I can't print the wider cradles and that's the "Alex" I currently have. Would be nice if you included a model that can connect in quarters for the wide version.
An Alex drawer (for the basic "under the table" version) hack: if you apply a little extra force, the drawers can be pulled out for a few extra cm-s (~5-6cm) which is already quite nice to reach to the back. I don't know why this works, but I didn't experience any issues, even with heavier loaded drawers...
First time I’ve seen your vids, very cool. I just bought an Alex from IKEA last weekend, don’t know if my UA-cam algorithm sent me this vid because it knows I bought one. 😂
Cheaper and faster alternative that I use: cardboard boxes from my weekly grocery shopping. I was able go prototype sizes I needed and reshaped things as I needed quickly. Done with each drawer in about 5-10 minutes 😂
Looks like a great system but it's pretty tailored for Alex by Alex. I've been using the rip-off, Gridfinity, for a while and I figure no point in switching now.
Yeah - I actually like the pitch dimension of Alex’s system vs the smaller Gridfinity grid, as it’s a better size for the sort of small hardware I store most often. (vs smaller electronic parts). I really wish there was a half-pitch modular standard for Gridfinity, such that I could make boxes sizes 1.5x1.5 grid, 2.5x2.5, etc with base plate grids with 0.5x0.5 grid size.
@@DaveEtchells Many of the gridfinity generators let you make half grids and bins with half grid grooves. I considered using the half widths but decided against it just for simplicity. Id hate to have little 0.5x0.5 grid spot open because the surrounding bins don't fill it.
@@joezappie Thanks for the tip! It had been a year or more since I’d last looked for the capability, but at your suggestion checked again and found an incredibly complete albeit complex set of OpenSCAD scripts that supports half-pitch. In situations where I’d use it (organizing larger hardware like bolts, wood screws, etc), all the containers would likely be multiples of 1.5x. I’ll look at the OpenSCAD I found, maybe there are simpler generators that will still give me the 0.5x capability. (I do love Gridfinity, suspect it accounts for 50% of my total filament use 😂)
There are some improvements over your original system and gridfinity! I think these are cool, if I did already print out gridfinity boxes for my Alex drawer, I might have done this instead because I’ve basically failed to use the back of each drawer just like you solved.
Dang, and here I just finished months of casually making tiny cardboard boxes for this purpose for legos. But this would also take forever to print and tons of plastic. I wish there was a system even close to this with the right dimensions but just holder clips to hold cardboard walls. (Yes I have tried but I’m just not that good…). Amazing work! I’ll try one drawers worth, see how long it takes.
Hi, love the trays, they would work well in my kitchen draws, if only they were a bit longer. I was thinking you could release an extension section with the dowel joining system on each end, then folks could make the trays as long as they want by adding multiple extensions.
I can totally recommend getting a 3d printer, but this is not the project for it. 1 simple reason: it is too expensive. For example, half of a low unit will be 125g of filament, and half of a high unit is 175g. So filling a complete Alex desk drawer will cost you about 3,5KG of filament. filling the cradles with bins will probably double that. When you just start out, you don´t want to experiment with the cheapest filament around, so think of 20 dollar/euro per kg of filament will set you back 140 dollar/euro on filament alone, and add the 20 for the designs. Now in most cases people have been printing for a while they've got all sorts of old and weird filament laying around. it's a great project to finish those rolls on without hitting the bank hard.
One improvement I think would be possible is making the grid on the bottom of the cradles hollow, reducing the height of the cradles and how high the boxes sit in the cradles.
Oh my god, ever since the first video about your 3d printed containers, I've been drooling over them. I've still managed to resist the urge to start doing this myself. In fact, I'm a much too exaggeratedly 'professional' person who wants everything to be done to perfection and when things don't fit, I go crazy. So that's what happened years ago. The most bizarre burnout ever with every bodily function out of balance. But that's besides the point. I can't accept it any more. After years of living in a mess, because I had actually given up hope that I would ever get my life back on track, I finally have to buy a 3D printer to print my life back in order hahahahaha. For anyone who thinks I'm joking; I'm actually not. The amount of pleasure it brings me to store things in such detail with labels and even barcodes... inexplicable. And I happen to have an Alex cabinet in which things look like they've been thrown in from a few meters away. Now comes the figuring out which printer is most suitable. Years ago I looked at an Artillery X2 because it had a very large bed. There must be a successor for that by now. I think it would be cool to print large lampshades for example. Thanks, Alex. seem I have a hobby for the coming months... ;-)
It looked very close to the Gridfinity system, do you know if it is compatible base wise. Since I am not sure. I just bought the printfiles, but would like to have some spacers in some of the bins.
If Ikea doesnt offer you a job or patent deal after seeing this, they're missing out. Your 3D printing organization solutions are genius, customizable, configurable, ergonomic, affordable, high quality and aesthetically pleasing. Awesome video and awesome idea!
Alex is over here making sure his reputation as a true Scandinavian builder goes untarnished by this oversight and inefficiency by IKEA. He’s holding his neighbors accountable and if they won’t solve this problem… he will! Alexandre is representing Scandinavian efficiency and organization, building awesome future and finding clever solutions to everyday problems.. Marius Hornberger is representing German engineering and build quality by building his own tools and equipment to ridiculous accuracy standards. I love to see makers on UA-cam who do unique things and add some of their unique culture and specific skills, making it feel like we’re getting a peek into their cultural identity along the way! There’s a Japanese blacksmith I watch that’s a perfect example of what I mean… they do pretty basic blacksmithing projects but in a very specifically Japanese way, and it’s cool to see that. It’s my favorite thing about the internet. Connecting people from across the world in ways we normally never would.
You should perhaps include labels on the drawer handles, that way you can find things faster. Even if the drawer does not have the interior organizers. Example: "office stuff", "printer sheets", "electronic things", etc.
I'm about to replace the drawer slides with ones that extend all the way out. Huge design flaw from IKEA. I did run and get the file. May start to print this weekend

The drawer handle could have a "flat spot" variation for a label, like the insert boxes have.

If only there was an ikea storage system designed by or with your input...I'd line up to give my money
Are the squares the same footprint as the Gridfinity?
Edit. They are not. These are 40mm and gridfinity is 42.
It’s probably a niche request, but I would love an in-depth design proses video including your use of SolidWorks.

Not a design flaw just cost savings. I think full extension and/or over extension are more expensive than partial extension. I could be wrong though.
