How to make it
- 01Pick the file for your plywood thickness and do a test cut of one slot before cutting the long parts.
- 02Cut the ten pieces over two sheets if needed: front, back, two short sloped sides, base and five identical dividers.
- 03Set all five dividers into the base, then fit the back, both sides and the low front around them.
- 04Sand, apply lacquer or oil, and fill the six slots with tea, napkins, jars, sugar sticks, sachets and twine.
Six slots along the backsplash
At 400 mm long and only 160 mm deep, this organizer runs along the backsplash or a narrow open shelf without eating counter space. Five identical dividers split it into six slots, each the full depth of the box. In the photo, from left to right: tea bags in three colors, a stack of napkins, two spice jars, a bundle of sugar sticks, a few sugar sachets and a hank of jute twine. The walls step from 90 mm at the back to 45 mm in front, so everything is visible from across the kitchen.
A long layout to plan for
The 3 mm layout is 1544 × 262 mm, the longest in this set. The 400 mm front, back and base will not share a sheet on most hobby lasers, so give them their own sheet and put the sides and dividers on another. For the 3 mm file, cutting takes about 24 min 40 s on a 10 W diode, about 10 min 17 s on a 40 W CO2 and about 4 min 56 s on a 100 W CO2. A diode handles 3 mm in one or two passes; the 5 and 6 mm versions want a CO2 or multiple passes.
Assembly and finish
Stand the five dividers in the base first, then bring the walls in around them. Long walls flex a little in 3 mm plywood, so 4 mm is worth considering here, and a bead of wood glue in the base slots stiffens it. Sand and finish with clear lacquer or oil.
Ideas for selling: a coffee bar or tea station caddy, an office kitchen sugar and tea organizer, or a café counter caddy cut in bulk for small businesses.
Questions about this file
Is it narrow enough for a shelf?
It is 160 mm deep and 400 mm long, so it fits most open kitchen shelves and the strip of counter in front of a backsplash.
Will 3 mm plywood be stiff enough at 400 mm long?
It works, though the long walls flex slightly. Use 4 mm or glue the joints if you want it rigid.
Can I make it shorter with fewer slots?
Yes, shorten the front, back and base in your design software and remove a divider, keeping each slot equal to your sheet thickness.
Is this good for a coffee station?
Yes, the six slots suit coffee pods, sugar, stirrers, tea and napkins side by side.
Can I engrave a word along the front?
The 400 mm front panel is a good spot for a word like coffee or tea. Add your own engraving layer, since the file has only cut lines.
