Soda Angle (so cans roll to the front of their boxes) (sort of parametric)

We store our not-refrigerated sodas in their boxes and replace them one at a time as we drink the cold ones. The thing with these oh-so convenient boxes is that the sodas don’t actually roll to the front in the manner to which we are led to believe they would - so I built an angle for them!

If you open this in Inkscape there is a single rectangle in the upper left hand corner of which all the other slots are clones - so you can resize it to match your wood thickness exactly (or your wood thickness minus your kerf if you want it to be press-fit). I still glued it all together just because multiple boxes of soda are heavy

The pieces in purple are so you can test your fit. That one is not a clone, so if you re-size you’ll need to copy one and adjust it manually (you can’t have a clone be a different colour and I thought it being a separate command was more important.)

So simple, and yet so helpful. Gotta love practical cuts! :smiley:

That truly is a great practical cut! So nice of you to share it! We only drink Pepsi Zero Sugar, and have switched to using our SodaStream to make it (which I buy the Pepsi bottles from Amazon for about half price than Walmart), so we no longer buy the cans. But I’m saving this because it is so useful!
