Stackable Jigsaw Puzzle Sorting Trays
Take your puzzling to the next level with these stackable, nesting, lightweight sorting trays. Separate pieces by shape, color, or any other method; the trays are easy to pick up and move around the puzzle as needed. The trays stack securely, whether aligned or offset on a diagonal, and the small but useful handles allow you to easily lift and move trays, whether stacked or single.
These trays can also be used to sort beads, crafting supplies, circuit board components, or any other small objects you might want to keep from running away from you. The possibilities are endless!
Each tray is just under 8.25" x 8.25" x 1", including handles. Most 1,000-piece puzzles will fit into four trays comfortably. Each tray can hold roughly 250 pieces, depending on the thickness of the paperboard and the size of the pieces.
Trays can be scaled up or down as needed without impacting how they nest and stack. Scale only in the X and Y axis, not the Z axis! I've printed them as small as 50% scale in X and Y without trouble, and regularly use these mini-trays for small parts.
Printing recommendations:
- No supports necessary
- Brim recommended if you have bed adhesion issues
- Print with the flat bottom on the print bed (same orientation you use the tray in)

Don't want to print your own trays and would rather buy a pre-made version? I have the pre-made trays available here.
