Description
I had found a filament waste bin on Makeronline, but while I had liked it, it was too small and the filament waste was too hard to remove. So, with the KX contest now live, I made my own to amend those issues.
It is still on the smaller side, however, the drawer allows the filament waste to be thrown away very quickly and easily. Since this is the first functional iteration, it does have a bit of a boxy, simple, design, but it gets the job done!
The last picture demonstrates both how much waste it can hold, and also how much waste the print generates using all four colors.
UPDATE 5/8/2026: Added support to the overhang above the drawer. Also structurally fixed an issue where, overtime, the model could sag from the printer.
