Made this to keep track of small #2-56 / M2 screws for a project of mine

    Those looks kind of small. You might lose them unless you make a screw holder holder.

    It saves you a lot of time instead of having to lose each one individually. Now I can just lose the entire thing in one go.

    I just have small boxes for those…

    Edit: oh it’s the 3d printing community. Hope you had fun designing!

      I also have little trays, but this is more meant to prep for a project, so they just need to be in one place and if it was to fall, not spill. A Magnet would work, but they ain’t as cheap as this.

      And yes I had fun, playing with the FreeCAD Linear Patterns tool

    Something like that, but with a magnet in the bottom to pull the screws off my screwdriver would be amazing.

    I just swapped 24 hard drives from server trays and getting the screw off the screwdriver without having to use my other hand was the worst part of it.

      The point of this was to be cheap. It’s more meant to be a quick way to get the correct number of screws ready for a thing and they screws just need to be held down.
