One-time setup fee per comb design: €40

How to measure your tray

  1. Find the notches in the tray walls where the comb bar rests.
  2. M: measure straight down from the bottom of the notch to the tray floor, for example with the depth rod of a caliper. The teeth will end 2 mm above the floor, so every well keeps a bottom.
  3. F: measure the outer width of the tray across the notches, from the outer edge of the left wall to the outer edge of the right wall. The bar is cut to this length.
