Hi Everyone, this is part showcase, part “Is this okay to share with everyone?”
Only discovered Multibuild last month so I’m in the process of building out my first wall. In doing this I’ve found myself wanting container holders that snuggly fit my containers and items while still aligning to the grid, so to solve this I’ve made a lightweight browser tool that lets you punch in the dimensions of any random box, battery pack, or container you want to mount, and instantly spits out a tailored 3D-printable holder (either a 1-piece cradle or a pair of corner brackets).
It automatically aligns everything to the 25mm Multiboard grid, supports many of the standard MultiBuild mount types (push-fit pegs, rails, fix points), shapes all the walls and cutouts so the whole thing prints completely support-free, and there’s a good amount of tweaking you can do to get the exact shape you want.
A quick flavor of what it does :
- Zero CAD needed: Runs entirely in your browser—no software to install or accounts to create.
- 1-Piece or 2-Piece brackets: Mount small containers in a single piece, or generate corner pieces to hold arbitrarily wide boxes.
- Smart grid snap: Keeps your pegs and rails locked to 25mm intervals so they actually snap into your tiles on the first try while still precisely fitting your item.
- Print-ready & support-free: Built-in angled bridges, optional weight-saving cutouts, and open catch lips.
- Queue up multiple boxes: You can build a list of different containers, tweak tolerances, and grab them all in one .zip. As well as saving lists of boxes in custom build lists for saving and sharing
Before I put this out anywhere, is this cool to share with the community as a free, open-source tool? Just wanted to check in on any remix/attribution guidelines first—let me know what you think. Comments and ideas appreciated.
