New Year, New SNACK Drawers
It’s a new year and so it’s time to dust off the 3D printer and get back to work. There is now a new drawer model and a new variation to the old one too! See below for details on the new SNACK Drawer Medium and Captured Cards.
For those that are new to Framework, welcome. This might also be your first time seeing anything about the SNACK Drawer. If so, please take a look at the original post and the version 2 post for some history.

Digital Files
If you want to print your own drawers for cheaper, or you live outside the USA / CA, the digital drawers are a great option. The first drawer file set is $8.00 but the other afterwards is only $4.00! Click here to jump to the digital files store page.
If you previously bought the digital files for the Old Original or V2, you will be getting the updated files with the captured versions as well as a coupon for the medium drawer digital files in an e-mail in the coming weeks. Thank you for your patience.
What’s New?
Medium Drawer
Thanks to the suggestion by @Keith_J_Brett, I made a 50% larger version of the SNACK Drawer that extends below the normal expansion card slots but is just shorter than the laptop’s rubber feet. This extra space makes it possible to store all sorts of new and exciting things. Here are some examples:
Captured Drawers
I don’t remember to whom I owe the suggestion of making the drawers captured, but if it is you reading this, thank you!
By adding a little slot in the bottom of the drawer slide and a post in the frame, these variations of the drawers are captured so as to not fall out! Both versions of the drawer support this variation.
New Colors
Thanks to two customers who requested custom colors, I now have in stock a silky white that is a close-ish match for the framework’s aluminum and an orange that is (I hope, I don’t have a reference) close to the orange of the bezel replacement. See those colors at the top of the page.
Thank You
Thank you to all the people that have given an internet stranger (me) their money so that they could put a tiny drawer inside their niche laptops. I look forward to making more improvements and designing even better solutions to problems you didn’t know you had.
