3D printing tip for you: when you're making something circular, don't export as .stl. Export as .step and put this directly into the slicer. It will then give you the highest possible resolution circle instead of getting a manysides-ahedron, as it reads it more like a vector file than a bitmap if that makes sense?
Lovely work though. If I could afford the negative space to open them this would definitely be my preferred sandpaper storage. For me it's little drawers instead; maybe I'll put the files up one of these days.
I’m amazed at how much high value Content you can fit into a reasonably length video.
This was super helpful. Really appreciate your effort.
Thanks a lot!!
GREAT DESIGNS!!, For the roll of sandpaper holder. you could fix the issue by replacing the hacksaw blade with a small rolling gearwheel mechanism that could score a line of holes across the segment you would like to cut, then pull down and pull away , paper should tear at the compromised scoreline before any other place.
A more simplistic approach could be a spring loaded bar of small nail heads or pins , you press against the bar, holes are pierced and as you release pressure, the springs pull the bar away, you can then pull down and away.
looking forwards to seeing more designs, you've earned yourself a new subscriber :D
Quicktip for the inserts: leave them sticking out about 1-2mm while pressing with the soldering iron. then quickly push the rest 1-2mm with a flat metal piece. That way you get a nice flush insert which also looks just great.
Good tip!
This is the way
@@C3DPropShop LOL
hmm... I'm going to try that right this minute. I've always had to muck around with mine at the last second to make sure they're properly aligned/even straight! Never considered I might be overheating/overpushing them. I might have to practise what kind of hand switching I need to do to get the flat metal on there quickly enough. Thanks for the tip!
It's important, too, that you use the lowest setting on your soldering iron, and do not force the fitting in - allow the heat and the weight of the iron, with very little pressure on it, to insert the fitting.
Love the storage solution! Being able to visualize whatever idea you have in CAD and then be able to hold it in your hand an hour or 2 later is so amazing!
Thanks! Yes I aboslutely love it
Love the ad read! Now on to the chisel storage...
The round sanding disk storage would work great for polishing pads as well!
Love the sandpaper storage. I wonder - could you have printed each segment with a dowel hole through the bottom half and then a 3D printed dowel "spike" (if you will) coming out of the top? that way, if you want to add more, you haven't got to cut any more dowels, they would just stack on top of each other and you'd just need to move the top wall mount up.
I really like the sand paper, round sheet storage idea. I think I will add a peg board attachment to it. So that It fits my existing management system.
Awesome job integrating 3d printing into the shop!
That said, for me personally, the sandpaper storage is a bit over-designed. I would have went with simple wall mounted drawer units made of 1/4" plywood. You can install dowels as stops so they don't fall out when changing discs. And because they open straight, you'd maintain more wall space.
These are some fantastic ideas and well executed! Thanks for the inspiration!
Just purchased the sanding disk storage files. I love this concept! Cant wait to put it in my shop!
Great video Pierre! That storage solution is top shelf. Thanks for sharing!
Your disc paper holder - absolutely brilliant! I do mostly autobody work, and have 2/3/6" discs from 24 through 10K grit. If I start printing tonight, I might have them all done by the summer. ;)
As for the dowel... what if you had a ~25mm printed pin on all the bottoms, and mating hole at the top? Be somewhat Lego(c) like then and you could add/delete holders just by unscrewing the top bracket and moving it up/down.
One thing I love about woodworking is that I can make things on my own that would usually come in plastic and thus avoid the use of plastic
There are many times plastic is a better material than wood, especially with plastics like those used here that are made from cornstarch. Shades of grey, ya know.
For the roll sandpaper holder, if you put a slot from the bottom of the back piece up past the blade, a bit wider than your thumb, you will have a spot to grab the paper!
What an absolutely great idea for all your stuff love the sandpaper one most would definitely try that one if I had a 3D printer maybe someday. Thanks for sharing
It is looking really good, I do not have any experience in 3D printing but maybe if you make a small notch for finger under the hacksaw blade so it is easier to grab sandpaper!?
Regarding heat press inserts, you can get special soldering iron tips that are designed to push in the inserts properly. They look like a small barrel on a larger barrel, they fit inside the insert and press it without twisting or any angle. I can't remember which online shop/auction site I got them from, but they were cheap and work fine. I don't think you can get ones with an integrated element, like you would use in certain soldering irons, but if you have an iron that takes the solid tips, then you'll likely find exactly what you need.
Great work, thank you for sharing👍
The sandpaper dispenser is a great design! I made something similar for the kitchen to dispense/store lids for reclaimed yogourt containers. I'd lean more toward a metal pin rather than wood. I suspect it may wear in, and cause more sagging. Great video!!😃
Definitely the best sandpaper storage i have ever seen! ❤
GREAT STUFF from you my dear man!! Didn’t need to say that as it’s always great stuff!!
Holes?! Perfect amount of holes matey perfect!
The 3M roll out storage is totally amazing! However I was pleased you explained the gap (it really shows on your video) so now I understand and I would make it again. I would put the video in front of the 3M people and their input??!!
The rip off unit, just the right amount to pull for the next use. Perfect!
Chisel storage, love it man! My chisels wouldn’t leave their current wooden home for anything less!!
It’s all just ACE and the thought and the learning you pass on down is so gratefully received.
Great just great man!

Adding 3D printing to my shop has made a huge difference. I still need to learn Fusion but that will be coming soon. I'll be doing a series on my channel highlighting all the different ways I have used 3D printing in the shop. Thanks for making these. They are awesome!
Love the sandpaper storage solution, really neat! Gives me a lot of ideas :)
I love your storage problem solving but I have got to ask what’s the issue with dust getting on the sanding disc you will get dust on them as soon as you start using them!!!!
very nice advertising integration, I love it! 😂
Love the sand paper holder.. I am going to try and have the company make this for me.. Thanks!
This is a really great video Pierre. very clever storage, looks great!
Thanks a lot! Appreciate it!
Love the design, it looks cool and functions really well. Some ideas to improve the sandpaper storage if you ever end up doing a second iteration:
1. Consider adding a second dowel that only connects the bottom plate to the top plate on the opposite side from the hinge-dowel. This would act to keep the assembly square and help even out the load so it’s not all creating torsion stress points on the single hinge.
2. On the aforementioned supporting side, add magnets to that side that attract magnets in the boxes, or something like stainless steel if that gives enough pull. This would make it so layers are still held in place, but they aren’t held to each other, reducing the odds that you open more than one drawer.
The sandpaper storage is brilliant. I have a 3D printer, so I'm going to look at printing these. I have a sandpaper storage box that I made that works pretty well, but I don't love it - mostly because I made some mistakes when I made it - but I like your design much better than mine. Now I just have to figure out if I have enough wall space in my tiny shop to mount one!
Hi 👋, yes, it’s me again, I’ve just been watching, weather watch, on UA-cam, you might find it very interesting, sorry to say it looks like you’re going to get a lot of snow if you haven’t already got it, Stay safe, keep up the great work,
Hi Pierre totally awesome sandpaper storage and I love the soldering iron tip. Your videos are the best and getting even better
Thanks Steve! 😍🫶
These are awesome additions to your shop. I really like the sand paper holder. Great video!
Thank you man!
Love the sanding disk holders, a really clever idea. 👊🏻👊🏻👊🏻 I like the role holder but would love to see a measuring marks on the outside of the tube to cut the right amount.
You’re the perfect definition of overengineering ✌️😎😅
But I think that the design of the sandpaper disc storage is really awesome and brilliant! 👍
Amazing concept! I love it.
Great solutions and great video!😍
Smart solutions! I would make the thumb hole a little bigger on the sanding disc holder in version 2 though.
Love how you positioned the @pcbway so well into what mainly a Bambu printer showoff😂
Awesome job Pierre !!
These are amazing solutions. I've never tried CAD before but this has me excited to try it out so my workshop has storage for the odds and ends I keep on hand.
You should try it out - its really fun
Never thought I’d say the words ‘sexy sandpaper storage’ but I guess I just did, fair play Pierre that looks ace 👌
Thanks John!
For the first part, you could make one of the endcaps press onto the inside of the sandpaper roll in such a way that it pushes it out when spun, and I think that would help with getting more out once you cut it. Alternatively, you could just make the distance between the exit and the cutter larger, so there's more surface area to manually push down on.
been using 3D printing in the work shop for years, (mostly vac adaptors and tool hangers) funny, it seems sooooo Manny "UA-cam" wood workers are now adopting it! it's fantastic and fun!
I do love the sanding disk holder although i have found that keeping the boxes in a drawer with the lids ripped off to show the grit works quite well...😊
This is fantastic!!
I believe you have solved this problem with sand paper storage. Efficient on use of space and easy to get the paper out without it fighting you. Nice job! I tried some designs that look like a subdivided file drawer which were an absolute waste of good filament.
Nooo that gap would be killing me! :D
Great storage!
Seriously, both storage ideas are great! My favorite is the sandpaper storage idea. Can you share how an estimate how much time you spent prototyping the design? Not necessarily print time, but the time spent figuring out the idea and getting to your finished product.
great solutions!
Great sandpaper solution! Thanks for sharing
Thank you!
Redesign the baseplate to have support across the entire back edge, so you could put a screw on the right side of the stack at the bottom, thus holding the base up, and closing your dreaded gap, all with one reprint.
I wished I had gotten a 3D Printer years earlier. It opens SO many avenues to make woodworking and storage solutions better
Smart solutions! And I even liked the pcbway part! 😂 keep up the great work 🙌
Thank you! Glad you liked the pcbway part :)
Nice work!
Snyggt och praktiskt! Bra jobbat! 😃👍
As a custompainter I can agree your solution is handy. The only thing I would change is an acrylic cover for the sandpaper roll. So you can see when it runs out.
Well you just need to put a slot in the cover to see inside.
Very good addition! Thanks!
super clever ideas pierre!!
Thanks Eric! I might have been stealing your finger-thumbnail-thing
Really like both ideas 👍
How about a cut out in the back plate of the roll holder so you can get a finger behind the paper at the cutter blade.
These designs are fire!!!
Awesome ideas!
Fvcking awesome man, thanks for the ideas & the work put in.
Thank you!
I really like the sandpaper storage, really smart!
Great job! And for those who don'have a 3D printer - think about using a PVC pipe end caps for example.
SUBBED! love the disc holders
Awesome ideas! I love the sandpaper storage so much. One small issue I see is the thumb hole might be too narrow for some (I have fat thumbs). Other than that, brilliant idea!
The sandpaper holder is great
I think sandpaper will eat out the plastic after time .
microplastics will be produced by frition.
it's a beautiful project however and I enjoyed watching it!
thank you for this video!
Ok, as small of a detail as it is, the 3D printed washer! Wouldn’t have thought of that! Great idea!
Thanks!
Hey, not sure if you know, but you can and imo should increase export stl model quality to eliminate those vertical stripes on round 3d printed objects.
Well done 👍
Ett tips. Gör ett u-format urtag i plasten bakom sticksågbladet. På så sätt får du lättare tag i sandpapperet.
Print a sign: "Don't mind the gap" with a UK style of course.
Nice commercial bit! Fun!
I like it! I would just put a thumb access on the first dispenser that goes deeper than the saw blade (similar to your access slots in the last dispensers). Should be much easier to grab and pull down then
This is great 😍
For the first sandpaper holder:
Make a groove all the way up behind the blade so you can easily grab the sandpaper.
I had the same issue with type of PLA. A cool trick is to use regular white for the first two layers, then switch to the marble. Not a problem for those with a bambu lab printer + AMS, but also doable in most 3D printers.
That is so clever! Thanks
You could try a putty knife to put your magnets in. Makes a world of difference. Magnet sticks to the metal putty knife you slide the magnet into the hole and press down. No more CA glue on the fingers. Also I got a polarity tester for music equipment by Schatten Magnet Polarity Tester. It's 20 bucks on Amazon and it stopped me from putting my magnets in the wrong way. Love your videos.
I love all of those projects, I just need to convince the wife that it's good idea to get a printer now .
Great video Pierre 🙂
😂
Thanks mate! You will convince her. Its more important than home renovation ;)
These are all very cool; the only thing I would add is to put a French Cleat on the back of the, so I could more easily move them around my walls.
Love your videos, bro! Hope you'll come on the podcast soon?
Hey man! Likewise! Im up for it!
Good work. The material you choosen there can be a problem. PLA and equal tend to change shape over time and when those hinges they could potentially sag over time. Though yours are pretty thick so it may work :) I have alot of sanding discs to. 10+ packages so i need something but i like compact compartments so i have them on shelves that i pull out instead. Not as fancy as yours :D I do ALOT with 3d printer to. everything from dust caps to cases to gridfinity style stuff. I just need to get my YT running showing what happened last couple of months :D
if you could make cutout at the bottom sandpaper rolls holder (cutout between mounting points of hacksaw blade) you will have more space for sandpaper grabbing
They look amazing!
Thank you!
@@TheSwedishMaker what do you think would be a good workshop size for you? How many square meters?
1) You store sanding disks horizontally in trays that have to be swung out and back to access. I store them vertically with separators, and can just lift the one I want. In this orientation only the edge is open to dust- a trivial area (if you worry about such things). And there is little wasted space.
2) why would you want a door on your chisels? Two extra operations to retrieve a chisel. You have more delicate items just hung on the wall.
3) Roll sandpaper- dust on sandpaper does no harm (it will get that immediately you start using it!)- but a follower over the roll (as used on some toilet roll holders) over the top does the same job. And much faster to replace.
One touch retrieval is the gold standard- in one motion the tool is in your hand in the orientation it will be used. Doors, drawers, etc are inferior to this.
Your side motion of the paper holders means that wall space is twice storage space. Inefficient.
I note that you have to orient your fingers to hold back the holders above and below the one you have selected. Having the holders magnetically attached to each other makes this worse- much better to have the magnet retain the holders against the wall.
3D printing is great for optimizing workshop storage, but remember-
'perfection is achieved not when there is nothing more to add, but when there is nothing left to take away'.
👍
Wonder how long it will take for the sandpaper dispenser to disintegrate :P
I would probably like the slit at the front so you don’t have to reach in under. Also moving the cutter further from the slit so it’s easier to feed through some paper since the cut is going to be flush it would easily be annoying to feed that first bit through if its even a tiny bit hard to reach.
Also magnets for the chisels :)
For the sandpaper rolls, in the center by the hacksaw blade you can model in a dimple that makes a pocket behind the blade and paper so you can easily reach under and behind the paper and pull it through.
Ill do that for the second version. I only realised the issue when shooting the video :)
Love the ideas. In the thumbnail, I thought you just put the sandpaper in a margarita rimmer. lol
Maybe a small improvement would be to make the numbers on the Sandpaper storage an indent system as 7 segment numbers (like old digital watches). You could then infill the segments with a pen colour to show the number. This would allow one module which you can customize as required. If you had your grey version you could use a black marker pen to fill in the segments needed to make the numbers. If you change things around you just need some alcohol to clear out the digits and re-ink the new numbers. Otherwise a great system you have made.
Clever idea for the update! Thanks!
ok great video 🙂
sand paper roll - if you lower the spot of your hacksaw blade - you will have easier access to pushing the new sandpaper you require
2nd - I do not have a 3d printer YET
old dvd /cd spindles - if one cut the center pole out = makes a great holder for sandpaper disc
Love the ingenuity and high quality in your editing and videography!
One note regarding your 3d printed shop storage though. You may not have an issue where you're at in the world, but it's worth mentioning that PLA can deform in a garage that isn't climate controlled. That's what happened to my sandpaper storage last year.
PETG however works beautifully, and prints well on the P1S.
Hi 👋, Swedish Maker , that is a great idea, back in the 80s, I purchased a four roll rack, to hold production paper, it consists of a metal mounting bracket, Which had two metal rods going across, and then there was a grey frame that I think was injected moulded, the back of it clipped on to the metal rods on the back mountain plate, each roll of paper was plastic rings on either side was a series of lugs, and the roles of sandpaper sat on the on the log., and I think that there was a ratchet to stop them rotating round, and then the paper went through a sprung loaded clamp with a serrated edge, so you could tear off the length you required, I think the company was called WORTH , not sure whether they are still going, I’m not sure if I spelt it right, as this is not one of my fortes ,
Great idea for the 3M‘s/festool round discs papers , I used to hang mine on the inside of a very large cupboard, just On Dowel,
I find it amazing what can be designed on 3-D printers nowadays? , A bit beyond me, I’m afraid me very old school, 70s + ,
Keep up the amazing work , don’t lose sight of your holes, 🕳️, and be very careful of the Event Horizon, The whole that you’ll never come back Out of, 😂, stay Safe, from the moulin,
The brand you're talking about is probably "Würth"
Yes you are correct, me being old dude, I can’t remember how it spelt, might be worth, 😂 check them out, if you haven’t done so already.
Snyggt! Hur trivs ni i huset och miljön?
Just found this channel! Was wondering if you will be making more videos on home renovation?
I am definately! :) thanks for watching
something that is missing for me is spring mechanism for auto closing, but I man not thath clever to invent iven this very good idea. Bravo :)
I love that want to make it. Where is the file?
Brilliant!
Thanks!
Where does one buy the acrylic? Where do they sell that usually?
