I’m getting to the point where I need some storage other than plastic bags for my switches and caps. I’ve seen some fancy keycap storage like these and these, and some switch storage like these.

Those seem really nice if you are displaying them, but I’m planning on just having them in a drawer somewhere. Does anyone have any suggestions for storing both together?

    If you happen to have a 3D printer, Gridfinity would be my go-to solution. Otherwise, those Kinetic Labs containers seem like your best bet.

      But but but boxes take SO long to print! (I still love making them though. Great recommendation.)

          0.8, my friend. It’ll change it once again. And then you’ll try 1mm and have the chunkiet, yet most beautiful, prints ever. It’s like pixelation in real life.

            I’ve got a 0.8, I just haven’t tried it yet. I feel like the prints would be too imprecise for most applications though, no?

              Precision is just printer tuning. What you lose is minimum outer corner radius and minimum wall thickness, in other words detail. Boxes usually don’t have much detail. A lot of functional parts work well on 0.8. 0.6 is the good set and forget size. 0.4 is if you print more intricate stuff and smaller is for really detailed prints.
