IKEA SAMLA box clips - airtight

in 3D Printing3 years ago (edited)

Hello community!

Today I bring you something a little different. These are clips for the famous 22L IKEA SAMLA storage boxes.

These boxes are usually used not only to store clothes and stuff, but also to store items that need to be kept in a dry environment. Examples? Photographic material, 3D printing filaments, among others. The big problem is the humidity.

As the boxes are not airtight, adhesive caulking tape has to be added between the lid and the box itself. You can also add some silica to lower and keep the moisture level down.

The problem is that with this, the original clips you buy at IKEA no longer fulfill their function...
The solution is in sight. In addition to being much more practical and cheaper, you can still choose the color to print the clips!

Those clips look awesome on those storage boxes. Great color choice for the filament.
They are very clean a nicely printed too. What kind of printer is that? It looks very nice.

Thank you for the comment.
I own a Creality CR6-SE. It's a FDM printer.

Very nice! I have the Creality Ender 3 V2. I think I like your printer better 😄
