Description
A few weeks ago I went out looking for a set of stackable bins. I was looking for bins for my work table, which is located in my small apartment's living room/office; so I wanted to find something that looks good. After spending a many hours searching on google, amazon, container store, and ebay I decided to design my own set of bins.
Stackables were created to store small electronic components such as resistors, capacitors, switches, leds, and pots. They are designed so that you can easily stack and re-arrange them. Each bin measures 3" x 3" x 6". To date I have only created stackables using acrylic, though you should be able to use other materials have appropriate thickness, 1/8", and strength.

Do you have a dwg file?

Instructions
Here is what you need to get started:
(1) access to a laser cutter that is able to cut 1/8" acrylic sheets;
(2) two 12" x 12" pieces of acrylic, different color (enough to make two stackables);
(3) acrylic cement along with an applicator and the appropriate safety materials (rubber gloves).
Here are the steps to create your stackables:
(1) cut the material using the supplied svg files (if you want to create two stackables, make sure to duplicate the laser cut lines on the project files);
(2) assemble each stackable in the following order: (i) attach side feet to bottom panel; (ii) attach bracket feet to bottom panel; (iii) attach back panel to bracket feet and bottom panel; (iv) attach side panels to side feet, bottom panel, and back panel; (v) attach the top bracket to back and side panels; (vi) attach the front panel to side and bottom panels, and side feet.
