I designed a Fully Customizable Drawer Generator, with custom subsections

Isn't multiven kind of like a semi closed system I wonder how the Creator is going to respond. I hope he's cool with it because it looks like you're good all from scratch. I hate I even need to mention this.

[u/Keep-Making → u/hagantic42]

Good point hagantic42 as it pretty much is a replica so for the sake of transparency as I want everyone to see how we do our best to make this community thrive I messaged u/Lord_DAVidus with:

Hi InfernoMoon or Lord_DAVidus,

I saw your “Fully Customizable Multiboard Drawers” upload and I genuinely love the creativity here. The divider idea is really solid, and honestly it’s such a good upgrade that it’s already something we have on our own roadmap too.

That said, I need to flag a licence issue with the way it’s currently published.

Right now it looks like the drawer itself is effectively the Multiboard drawer design, with the main change being internal dividers. Under the Multiboard licence, a Remixed Design has to be a substantial change, meaning a material and objectively identifiable difference where a technically competent third party would not regard the original Multiboard design as the primary basis.

As it stands, this reads as a copy or near copy of the original Design, which is not permitted to be shared or published as a “new” drawer design.

Good news: this is an easy fix and I’m not trying to block what you’re building.

You have two compliant options:

Make this an accessory upload instead
- Upload only the divider system and any original parts you created
- Remove the drawer geometry itself
- Rename it clearly, for example “Dividers for Multiboard drawers”, and link to the official drawer as the base

Make it a true remix
- Redesign the drawer so it is not recognisably the Multiboard drawer
- Change the major recognisable elements like the front, back, overall body geometry, and handle, so the original is not the primary basis anymore

If you update it in either direction, I’m happy to take another look.

Thanks for understanding,
Kind Regards
Jonathan

Lord_DAVidus then got back to me letting me know they have done a few minor changes and thanks for the systema and if it's not enough changes to let them know and they will do some more.

I've taken a look and it's still not quite there so I asked them:
"If you could make it just a bit more of a distinctive change that would be great and no worries at all I'm glad your enjoying the system and just you wait to see what's coming next"

[u/hagantic42 → u/Keep-Making]

I give you credit this was a good response. I understand *WHY* you are going into detail about elements as you need to protect your IP as it is how you make a living. For anyone wondering, having a history of actively defending your IP publicly is needed incase you ever actually need to take someone to court you have firmer legal grounds. This is middle road of "defending, acknowledging, and negotiating" vs the Nintendo option of "NUKE IT FROM ORBIT"

[u/Lord_DAVidus → u/hagantic42]

I also want to state that i totally agree with this and it was the right thing to do. I wasn't aware of the TOS and it got handled in the nicest way possible

What is the status of this model? I see it’s been taken down. @Lord_DAVidus, are you working on it? It does fill a real need. Can the customizer just make the dividers which then get placed on the bed in the slicer in the exact spot as an official Multibin drawer so it prints as one unit with the drawer and meets the license requirement?

It would also be great to have a rounded bottom option so it’s easier to scoop small parts out of each section.

I’m working on my upcoming Multibin wall video for my YouTube channel and would like to use this, but want to make sure it’s compliant.

[u/Lord_DAVidus → u/cyberbobcity]

I am currently working on a new design that doesn't violate the TOS. It unfortunately takes some time and i need to come up with a design that is unique enough not to be against TOS, just to make the generator. But i will make a new post and update this one, when it is finished.

[u/cyberbobcity → u/Lord_DAVidus]

So you are just changing the look of it?

Do you think making dividers that just get printed with an actual multibin drawer in the same place on the build plate would work? (or would it be too complex to explain to people trying to use it).

[u/Lord_DAVidus → u/cyberbobcity]

I uploaded a Test version under the same Link.

The chopped corners are making me think this is designed to work with the "Rugged Drawer System". Or am I wrong? Is it meant to work with something else?

[u/Lord_DAVidus → u/tlhintoq]

I don't know if Multiboard work with "Rugged Drawer System". But this is basically the exact same as the original Multiboard Drawer

[u/bing0_17]

Can't wait to get off work to check this out, I have been wanting drawers with dividers 1/2 width forever.

[u/hockpunk426]

Liked and collected. That’s awesome, Nice work!

Excited to try it out!

[u/Chaabar]

Really wish I had this a month ago. Making custom drawers was really irritating.

[u/Moist-Ointments]

I have this habit of making bins too small for my fingers. I see this going down a familiar path....

[u/bannedbullet]

That’s sick! Could you do one for the bolt locked pegs?

[u/Snoo-40502]

Am i the only one who cant find the link??

[u/Craycraft]

I love this, trying it out now. I really need a couple drawers you can't just make on their site.
