										<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p><strong>Contain the cables. Keep calm.</strong></p>



<p>Messy power adapters and cable sprawl are one of the fastest ways to make a workspace feel chaotic—especially when that workspace isn’t permanent. The <strong>Logical CableNest</strong> was designed to solve exactly that problem.</p>

<p>CableNest is a <strong>ventilated cable management box</strong> that contains power adapters and cables while keeping them organized, cool, and easy to move. It’s designed to sit neatly behind a computer or notebook screen, but it works just as well anywhere you need to tame cable clutter.</p>



<hr class="wp-block-separator has-alpha-channel-opacity"/>



<figure class="wp-block-image size-large"><img decoding="async" width="839" height="1024" src="https://www.logicalplanet.com/wp-content/uploads/2026/02/60123-03-LCN-C-1-839x1024.jpg" alt="" class="wp-image-3966" srcset="https://www.logicalplanet.com/wp-content/uploads/2026/02/60123-03-LCN-C-1-839x1024.jpg 839w, https://www.logicalplanet.com/wp-content/uploads/2026/02/60123-03-LCN-C-1-246x300.jpg 246w, https://www.logicalplanet.com/wp-content/uploads/2026/02/60123-03-LCN-C-1-768x937.jpg 768w, https://www.logicalplanet.com/wp-content/uploads/2026/02/60123-03-LCN-C-1.jpg 1200w" sizes="(max-width: 839px) 100vw, 839px" /></figure>



<h2 class="wp-block-heading">What It Is</h2>



<p>CableNest is a <strong>100% 3D-printed, snap-together containment box</strong> for power bricks, chargers, and excess cable length. Open hex-pattern walls allow heat to escape while keeping everything visually contained and out of the way.</p>



<p>All CableNest models share the same height and depth, with multiple widths available to suit different setups—from compact laptop workspaces to multi-monitor desks.</p>



<hr class="wp-block-separator has-alpha-channel-opacity"/>



<figure class="wp-block-image size-large"><img decoding="async" width="839" height="1024" src="https://www.logicalplanet.com/wp-content/uploads/2026/02/60123-22-Exploded-839x1024.jpg" alt="" class="wp-image-3957" srcset="https://www.logicalplanet.com/wp-content/uploads/2026/02/60123-22-Exploded-839x1024.jpg 839w, https://www.logicalplanet.com/wp-content/uploads/2026/02/60123-22-Exploded-246x300.jpg 246w, https://www.logicalplanet.com/wp-content/uploads/2026/02/60123-22-Exploded-768x938.jpg 768w, https://www.logicalplanet.com/wp-content/uploads/2026/02/60123-22-Exploded.jpg 1200w" sizes="(max-width: 839px) 100vw, 839px" /></figure>



<h2 class="wp-block-heading">How It Works</h2>



<p>Power adapters load through the <strong>hinged split top</strong>, cables are routed out either end, and the <strong>ventilated walls allow heat to escape</strong> during use.<br>Once closed, CableNest keeps cables organized, concealed, and accessible when needed.</p>



<p>Because everything is contained in a single unit, the entire setup can be picked up and moved—ideal for shared tables, hot-desking, or temporary workspaces.</p>



<hr class="wp-block-separator has-alpha-channel-opacity"/>



<h2 class="wp-block-heading">In Use</h2>



<p>Placed behind a monitor or notebook, CableNest largely disappears from view while still keeping power accessible. Opening the top provides immediate access to adapters and cables without unplugging anything.</p>



<p>CableNest is equally at home in:</p>



<ul class="wp-block-list">
<li>Shared family workspaces</li>



<li>Home offices</li>



<li>Maker desks</li>



<li>Temporary or mobile setups</li>



<li></li>
</ul>

<h2 class="wp-block-heading">Modular by Design</h2>



<p>CableNest can be used entirely on its own, or paired with the <strong>optional Logical DeskBox</strong>, which sits neatly on top and adds tool and desk-accessory storage. Together, they form a compact, portable desk system—but each component also works independently.</p>



<hr class="wp-block-separator has-alpha-channel-opacity"/>



<h2 class="wp-block-heading">Assembly &amp; Printing</h2>



<ul class="wp-block-list">
<li>100% 3D printable</li>



<li>Snap-together design</li>



<li>No hardware required</li>



<li>Assembly is identical across all sizes</li>
</ul>



<p>Detailed assembly, disassembly, and usage diagrams are included with the download.</p>

<hr class="wp-block-separator has-alpha-channel-opacity"/>



<h2 class="wp-block-heading">Sizes Available</h2>



<p>CableNest is available in multiple widths, all sharing the same height and depth.<br>Different widths allow you to scale the system based on the number of power adapters and cables in your setup.</p>



<blockquote class="wp-block-quote is-layout-flow wp-block-quote-is-layout-flow">
<p><em>Note: Listings show a representative size. Various sizes are available.</em></p>

<h2 class="wp-block-heading">Why CableNest Exists</h2>



<p>CableNest was designed around a simple idea:<br><strong>power management shouldn’t force you into a permanent desk.</strong></p>



<p>By containing cables in a ventilated, movable box, CableNest helps keep workspaces tidy without sacrificing flexibility.</p>

<h2 class="wp-block-heading"><strong>Print &amp; Slicer Settings</strong></h2>



<p>Functional designs (such as this one) generally require more strength than non-functional designs and more strength than the typical default slicer settings provide, so please review your slicer settings carefully.</p>



<p>This product was designed for a 0.4mm nozzle and a 0.2mm layer height. For best results, I suggest the following:</p>



<ul class="wp-block-list">
<li>Material: <strong>PLA, PETG, or ABS</strong></li>



<li>Nozzle: <strong>0.4 mm</strong></li>



<li>Layer Height: <strong>0.2 mm</strong></li>



<li>Walls: <strong>4 (1.6 mm)</strong></li>



<li>Top/Bottom: <strong>5 (1.0 mm)</strong></li>



<li>Infill: <strong>40% Cubic</strong> (100% for maximum strength)</li>



<li>Detect Thin Walls: <strong>On</strong></li>



<li>Wall Generator: <strong>Arachne</strong></li>



<li>Brim/Raft: <strong>No</strong></li>



<li>Support: <strong>None required</strong></li>



<li>Print Orientation: <strong>As per STL/3MF files</strong></li>
</ul>
