Hexcells tips6/6/2023 It's useful for displaying items that look undersized within the cell, and since it's support stand isn't apparent from most angles, it can have a cool hovering effect. I designed it for use with Q Fig figures.) I've also designed a "floating nucleus" (also optional) which is like a cell within a cell. There is a simple platform(optional) that can be printed separately to elevate the item (useful when the item is short, but has a base that is wider than the bottom of the cell. I have added a new STL ("hexcell_joiner_inner_FIXED.stl") that should be properly sized with everything else in the collection. Update - The original inner joiner STL was undersized. Please share your creations if you remix. I can upload the design files for the other models too if there is interest. Update - I have uploaded FreeCad files for the solid cell and the inner and edge joiners, for anyone who wants to tweak the design. Update - For some additional designs, including new nuclei and joiners, and the hexagon pattern cell, I have added a collection of them to a new Thing. This is the right size for many small collectibles, including most Funko Pop figures. For a quick reference, the cells are 80mm deep, 70mm wide at the base, 140mm wide at the center, and about 120mm tall in the middle. Cells can be non-permanently attached using small printable joiners that snap the cells together. By joining and stacking individual cells, you can easily create your own custom configuration. Values larger than 1 are possible.HexCell is a modular system of 6 sided display stands I designed to show multiple collectibles when there is a limited amount of shelf space. A value of 0 does not constrain the cell height.
