I made this to hold compost scraps under the sink until I could take them
outside to the recycling bin. It hangs on the door with two screws partially
screwed in. The size of this print is fairly big: 270mm long x 210mm deep
x 190mm high. If you print it at 45 degrees, you can fit it into a bed at about
250 x 250mm. I used a Lulzbot Taz printer which gave plenty of room, even
printing the handle along with the bucket. Of course, scaling is another
option. The handle needs to be glued to the lid after printing. It should be
obvious how that goes. I used TitanX ABS filament and had no warping problems
with that.
When printing with plain ordinary ABS, I found that the following temperatures prevented warping and splitting: Nozzle: 260C, Bed throughout: 135C, Environment chamber 42C.
I printed on a TAZ printer which can handle an object this large. If you have a smaller printer, you could scale down the sizes.
