The messy half of making, a place of its own.
WorkBox is an enclosed 3 × 3 tiled workstation for spraying, sanding, soldering and finishing — printed to order, kitted with every part and pin, and assembled by you at your bench. Nothing to source. Nothing to build but the fun part.
Designed by Creative3DP, backed by 1,208 Kickstarter backers. Printed & kitted by us under commercial license.
DOC 01 — What it's for
One box. Four messy jobs.
The WorkBox was designed to give the messy half of making a single, contained place — so it stops spreading across the room you live in.
Spray & airbrush
Overspray stays in the box. Duct port and printed adapter accept the hose and fan you choose — vent outdoors where you can.
Sanding & filing
Dust and scraps contained around the work, not across the desk. The tray catches the fall-out; the acrylic keeps the view.
Soldering & electronics
Flux smoke gets a single extraction point. Cool-running puck LED over the bench, tools on the pegboard where your hands are.
Resin & print finishing
Curing, priming, decaling — a dedicated, wipeable chamber between the printer and the shelf.
Not a filtration system — it's an enclosure with a duct port. It contains dust, scraps and overspray and gives you a single place to extract from. Read the designer's safety note →
DOC 03 — Assembly
From a bag of tiles to a workstation.
No large panels, no hidden hardware. Every wall pins together from identical small tiles — that's what keeps it printable, repairable and expandable. This is the whole build:
-
01Printed parts, bagged
Every tile, rib and pin comes counted and bagged by sub-assembly — right side, left side, back, front, ceiling, tray, door, base.
-
02Tiles become panels
Each wall is a 3 × 3 grid of nine tiles pinned together flat on your bench. Small parts, desktop printer, no warping.
-
03Front frame, glove ports
The front carries the two arm ports and the sliding window channel — printed as tiles, pinned into one rigid face.
-
04Box takes shape
Base first, then walls and ceiling. 320 pins, no screws, no nuts — a mallet and an evening of satisfying work.
-
05LED and acrylic in
The puck LED seats in its ceiling recess behind a printed cover; the cut acrylic slides into the door channel.
-
06Ready for the messy part
Hang your tools on the pegboard faces, connect a duct if you want one, and give the mess a place of its own.
DOC 02 — In the box
Complete means complete.
The only two things Kickstarter backers had to source themselves — the 5 mm acrylic and the 60 puck LED — are already in your kit, sized to the design. Your first build should need zero shopping trips.
The design can be widened in 200 mm steps — see the Expansion Module Kit.
- ~85 printed parts, bagged by sub-assembly
- 320 printed pins — 8, 10 and 12 mm, counted per step
- Cut 5 mm acrylic door window, sized to your frame spec
- 60 mm puck LED with remote (recess-sized, as designed)
- Printed assembly guide + printing guide + components list
- Spare pins at the designer's 10% ratio
Provenance
Designed by Creative3DP.
Printed by us.
WorkBox launched on Kickstarter as a fully 3D-printable workstation and was backed by 1,208 people who pledged $70,527. We hold a commercial license from the designer to print and sell the physical result — a complete, customizable version of the thing backers had to print themselves.
We don't modify the design and we don't claim it. The designer's own printing guide, assembly manual and safety note ship with every kit.
