The new version 2.0 bins are similar to the version 1.0 models, but have the following changes or improvements:
- Fully redesigned bins from scratch
- Larger and more robust latch tabs
- Tabs open a bit wider to 80°
- All versions are now in one upload
- 3MF set up for single and multicolor printing options.
The following attributes were carried over from the version 1.0 models:
- These use a paperclip as the hinge wire (or a stiff wire which is approximately 0.85mm to 1.05mm diameter).
- All bins are 6U tall
- The covers are intended to prevent the migration of tiny parts between the bins, when used in a case.
- The compartments on the 1x4 (6 compartment) bins are now identical in size (so all the doors are also interchangeable).
- The doors on the bins have room for a 9mm wide Brother P-Touch Label.

Update 3/31/2024: Thanks to a comment on Reddit, I'm gonna work on a version of these which will use a filament hinge. That should be uploaded next week,
Update 4/2/2024: The filament hinge versions of the 1x1, 1x2(3C) and 1x4(6C) bins are designed, and being printed or tested now. The 1x1 bin is tested, and it works much better than the old 1x1 bin with the filament hinge. The other bins still need to be printed and tested though.
Update 4/6/2024: I "think" I have a final design for the filament hinge version, which will become the v2.1 bins, since I think they are a better and simpler design than the v2.0. The 1x2 (3C) bin will have a simple filament hinge design, where a piece of filament will thread through the doors and bin to form the hinge. Friction alone is enough to hold that hinge pin in place for the 1x2 (3C) bin. The 1x4(6C) and 1x1 models are getting a special lid design, which will have a built in pin on one side, and a spring type catch to grab the filament on the other end. This will make assembly simpler, since there will be no glue needed, and only one side will need a hinge pin. The downside is that the hinge pin will require a tiny support, so I decided to add that as in integrated feature. I'm test printing a slight tweak to the integrated support now, and if it works OK, then this should be the lid design.
