PLEIADES Desktop Waste Bin
Keep your space clean and stylish with this small desktop waste bin. This three part design utilizes a lightweight spiralized bin along with an outer rim that can hold a plastic liner, and a lid with a print in place hinge that keeps your trash out of sight, out of mind.
My PLEIADES series of prints are designed to be printed in vase/spiral mode in your slicer. I suggest printing the 'bin' part with a 0.8 mm nozzle width (even with a 0.4mm nozzle) and 3-5 bottom layers. No top layers. Make sure your slicer is not set to close small gaps. In BambuStudio I set the 'Slice gap closing radius' to 0 mm
The lid and outer rim can be printed with 3+ shells and 15-25% infill at 0.16-0.2 mm layer height. Depending on the filament and infill% you may want to increase the number of solid top layers on the lid to 6 or 7 for a smooth surface.
I designed this small bin to fit used bread packaging for the plastic liner, but any small plastic bag should do. It may also be used without a liner if you only plan on using it for dry waste.
Photographed models were printed on the Bambu Lab X1-Carbon 3D Printer using Bambu Lab PETG-CF filament.* *These affiliate links give me a commission on sales at no additional cost to you. Thanks for supporting Make Anything!
