FDM material wants to be kept dry, and Modmike's Ultimate No Drill Dry Box System is a fine way to do so using cheap cereal containers. This immediately leads to the question: how to store said containers? Most solutions are heavy on consumed area, and light on height. My condo has 10-foot ceilings, but only 1200 square feet. I needed a solution that made good use of height.
My Magnificent Bowls can each snugly store 2x cereal containers. The sides expose 3x8 honeycomb walls, into which are inserted struts (and anything else you'd like). The struts allow for pretty much arbitrary stacking. All faces meet in chamfers for additional strength. The front and back are cut away, but support insertion of panels indicating the Bowl's contents.

Design
- Why not put the struts inside, as opposed to outside?
- The honeycomb is oriented. Supporting internal struts would mean either restricting their placement to a few of the combs, or no longer supporting other arbitrary external hookups.
