The revision history

1.00 - Initial version, basicly a taller version of the original SE nozzle box. Release date: 16th March 2024

1.10 - By request the thread holes have been made 0.1mm bigger, to a total of 6.4 mm. Filet has been added to the top, to increase strength. A shorter version was added that holdes 10 nozzles, instead of the 18 in the original. Release date: 24th march 2024.

The backstory

In the serendipity of social media, I shared my SE nozzle box on Facebook. A friendly soul, an Ender 3 V3 KE owner, inquired if it accommodates longer KE nozzles. Inspired by this interaction, I set out to elevate the design for all 3D print aficionados like them.

The product

What emerged is a masterpiece of innovation (Almost). With beautiful rotating hinges and a cleverly integrated notch to secure the lid, this design is not only practical but also a delight to print. And the best part? It's entirely print-in-place, eliminating the hassle of assembly.

Whats in it for you

Whether you're a seasoned maker or just diving into the world of 3D printing, this model promises an exhilarating printing experience and a final product that exceeds expectations. Embrace the future of printing with this captivating creation.

Who is it for

For owners of Ender 3 V3 KE, K1, and K1 Max printers, seeking efficient storage solutions for their longer nozzles, this design is tailored specifically to accommodate your needs. Enjoy seamless printing experiences with this purposefully crafted nozzle box.

(I have been told that Anycbic Vyper/Kobra's might also be able to use this, but i cant really tell if that is true or not, if someone can confirm or deny this, please do.)

My print settings

For this model I used PLA

Infill set at 10%, gyriod.

2 walls.

3 bottom/top layers

But I would think that most normal settings would work with this model.

Feedback is appreciated

If you print this, please post a make, I would love to see how they come out on your printer.

Please know that i dont have a printer that matches these longer nozzles, so if anything is wrong, dont hesitate to contact me, and i will try and accommodate change request.
