This is a remix of my own [stackable baskets (version 1)](https://www.thingiverse.com/thing:4674657) I created about a year ago. Although I was quite happy with them, I thought I could save even a bit more on filament by making them "real baskets", i.e. having honeycombs everywhere including the bottom.
I also added fillets everywhere - doesn't really save much on filament, but can have a beneficial effect on stability because layers are slightly shifted against each other at the rounded edges.
Disadvantage of the new design: longer print times and larger model files (mostly due to all the rounded edges (fillet))
BTW: Latest models now also available at [Printables: Stackable Baskets](https://www.printables.com/model/1116174-stackable-baskets)

__UPDATE 2022-03-06:__ Although the filleted combs are very strong when the print is finished, some very narrow bridging is required during the print. It looks like some printers have problems with this, leading to broken combs. Seems
