Every time I scooped ice from my refrigerator, ice would fall out the back of the ice bin and end up in the freezer. This Ice Maker Rear Baffle is a simple, drop-in solution to that problem.

The baffle slides into the rear of the ice tray and acts as a physical barrier, keeping ice contained while scooping. It does not interfere with normal ice production or dispensing and can be easily removed if needed.

This is a small, practical quality-of-life upgrade designed to fix an annoying everyday problem with a fast, easy 3D print.
