Last part. Technically need to reprint a few pieces stronger, but we can get the hardware for it and assemble it then swap the parts for final assembly.

Looks good, IMHO, and the fill pattern chosen nicely, too!

The bin reminds me of the box I use to stow away all the parts for my current project when I don't have time for it :)

They used to be a great deal at Fred Meyer / Kroger when they included the 5 bins and lids together in the 10 for 10 deal. But now they're almost $5 ea. Very useful, fortunately I have about 3 empty right now. I use them for a lot of different things constantly changing use. The price isn't bad, it's just not a "Oh it's on sale I'll grab an extra pack while shopping" priced anymore.

I have about 6 with multiple holes in the lids after being used for strawberry aquaponics lol

They are also available here in Chile and I use them, too, for many purposes (for example: kitchen doesn't have a spice drawer, so I put a bin in the cupboard and can take out the spices more easily; we use some for tools; my dragon's carrier is "derived" from a better model of such a bin (lid locks) as there were no small pet carriers). There is always a use for such a tote ;)
Used them also in the US. Used some as planters when I needed flat, rectangular ones. I like keeping things organized. Stuff for the current project just got into a cardboard box as it was a better fit ;)

Lol, we also use them for spice bags. Only our boxes are from IKEA
We have two giant ones (fit under a queen-size bed) from IKEA for crafts and for the tools not used regularly.
We have IKEA here, too, there is a (one) store in Chile and they deliver for a reasonable price, so we have plenty of IKEA things which first might appear a bit unexpected given our location.
I found some nice craft things that are impossible to get in Chile (UV-active paint that's for paintings and not some make-up, and as well a jar of night-glow paint) or notoriously not available (polymer clay - available somewhat, but ordered, seller than cancelled) just today in a shopping mall while traveling abroad. Was quite a "random" craft & art store in a bigger city in South Africa, but well stocked.

It's the wife's blaster. You have to load the nerf darts into a shotgun shell shaped holder to fire them lol

Just a couple internal parts to split the air from one to two chambers and a latch.
Learning how to do colored letters. The top piece is most recent.

Another 2D print to put a smile on the kiddos face. The red is in a spiral pattern. When the light catches it you can see the "hypno ring" to make you follow the orders lol
