About this model

A simple remix of O3D's "Modular Drawers V2", designed to allow drawers of half the size to fit the connectors of the original full size drawers. Simply print either the original drawer design, or the design with alternate knob (the one I used, created by fipsthedog) at around a 47% scale on the X and Z axes, and 100% on the Y axis (you may need to adjust scale slightly depending on how it fits), and print the "Half_Size_With_Full_Size_Connector" file at 100% scale. The connecter fits fine with the original designed full size boxes, great if you want smaller drawers but already printed some full size "Modular Drawers V2". The Design could benefit from being modified to increase the friction of the modular connectors, as they often slide before the drawers do in the current design.
