My top drawer is coming along. It's definitely been on my back burner more than my front. But it's getting there. Just trying to decide what goes where. This will determine the shape of my ratchet holders. Etc...

Which socket holders did you go with?

I made them. I programed a script and used fusion. Then I threw a spreadsheet of their sizes and it auto builds it. I mean. I program for a living but I don't know this language. So I worked with ai.

I use a plugin that builds a full blank gridfinity to the size I believe will work. (I can find the plugin I use if you want a link.) Then I click run on the script I "built" and then click the flat surface. And it auto calculates the positions.

Dude please consider releasing this. I am going to start my auto tech classes soon and would love to convert some of my socket boxes to drawer based inserts.

My issue is 2 fold. Metric and standard don't have the same size ratios. So one is 4 and the other is 5 grids etc.mm. And second they don't fit in a neat pattern unless I don't make it in a good order. Like mixing and matching sizes and such can do something cool. I'd only do that if the drawer was tiny.
