FreeCAD Stackable Flat Box

Adjustable stackable flat box or tray, designed in FreeCAD.

Example drawing

Goals/Features:

The aim of this project is to make a CAD file with all necessary shapes to make a stackable tray. Additional goals are:

  • Adjustable for all material thicknesses.
  • Fully automated tab depth adjustment (changing material thickness changes tab depth by default).
  • All dimensions kept in an associated spreadsheet for easy adjustment & repurposing.
  • Shapes should hold true under any input dimension.
  • Pockets along top & bottom edges to aid in stacking, automatically calculated form material thickness.
  • All fitment features (such as tab width or handle size & placement) should automatically be calculated from:
    • Height
    • Width
    • Depth

ToDo:

  • Finish adding all relavant constraints to all solids, re-adding or removing constraints as necessary.
  • Clean up spreadsheet calculations (remove redundancy).
  • Confirm placement of each solid is calculated through its neighbor, in such a way that changing dimensions doesn't shift parts closer (or further away) from its neighbor.
