What dimensions should I enter to fit standard A4 or US Letter magazines and folders?

For A4 magazines (210 × 297mm) and US Letter folders (216 × 279mm), set Side Depth L = 240mm to 250mm, Spine Width W = 90mm to 110mm, and Rear Spine Height H = 280mm to 310mm.

Can I scale this up to hold 12-inch vinyl LP records?

Yes! Set Side Depth L = 325mm, Width W = 180mm, Rear Height H = 320mm, and Thickness T = 6.0mm plywood to create a heavy-duty tabletop vinyl LP record storage caddy.

Does the rear spine include a finger pull hole?

Yes, a Ø28mm ergonomic circular finger pull cutout is automatically positioned near the top center of the rear spine wall so you can easily pull the caddy off a bookshelf.

Are all 5 parts laid out on a single cut sheet?

Yes, all 5 interlocking components are automatically nested onto a single 1:1 flat canvas in the exported .DXF, .SVG, and .PDF files.

Structural Geometry & Material Reference (ISO 216 A4/Letter Archival Filing & Interlocking Tenon Joinery Standard)

Vertical magazine file holders, vinyl record caddies, and A4 binder organizers require sloped side walls for rapid document viewing combined with a rigid interlocking base and tall spine wall that carries the pull load when retrieving heavy files from a shelf. Our parametric 5-piece desk organizer generator creates a mortised base floor, two sloped side walls (tapering from full spine height H at the back to 42% height at the front lip), a low front retainer lip, and a tall rear spine wall featuring an ergonomic Ø28mm circular thumb pull hole.

Front Retainer Lip Height (H_front)

H_front = max(45 mm, round(H_spine * 0.42))

Sets the front retainer wall height to 42% of the rear spine height so A4/Letter folders are securely retained while keeping titles visible.

Sloped Side Wall Angle (theta_slope)

theta_slope = atan((H_spine - H_front) / (L_depth * 0.68))

Computes the angled diagonal cut connecting the top spine plateau to the front retainer lip.

Kerf-Compensated Mortise Slot Width (W_slot)

W_slot = max(1.0 mm, T - K)

Adjusts all floor and spine mortise pockets by subtracting laser kerf (K) from board thickness (T).
