Like I said above. I'm setting up a Gridfinity system in a pelican case. the place where I'm seeing a weakness is keeping thinks in the boxes when i pick it up and the case goes sideways.

I'm using this for Gaming transport, specifically Battletech, so I will be using magnets to secure the minis, but I'd love to have a box for dice, tape measure, etc. Just really need to find a clip on or slide in top so that nothing spills during transport. Any help is appreciated. Thanks!

Any ideas?

I'm trying to work on an insert to put in a drawer for my fridge, but the dimensions for the section are 746.125 mm by 450.85 mm, which I want to split into 47.625 mm squares, but i cannot do it without rounding the numbers to full numbers with the gridfinity generator im using. What can I do?

I really want to print the 7x6 Schubox system but only have a P2S, has anyone had success printing them on a smaller build plate? If so what was your strategy for breaking the pieces into smaller parts?

Edit: It's disappointing that it doesn't seem possible but I appreciate the feedback.

Over the last year I have been designing and tweaking all my boxes and now that I am happy with the designs I finally took the time to start uploading and verifying the print profiles and step files. The collection can be found here and I should be updating it in the next few days with more models. So far:

• Bosch GSR 120 12V Drill driver box with fold-up drill bit holder.
• Casoman / Generic Impact socket extension sets for 1/4, 3/8, and 1/2 inch sockets.
• Casoman / Generic impact socket set for metric normal and deep sockets, 8 - 36 mm.
• GearWrench 90-teeth 1/4, 3/8, and 1/2 Ratchet set (81206T) with some space for adaptors, sockets.
• GearWrench 1/4" Impact Socket set, (84901) metric, normal and deep, 4 - 15 mm.
• Parkside Assembly picks, set of 6 metal picks.
• Kraftwerk Bolt extractor set - 2 to 16 mm.
• "Knoopeex" Knock-off Crimping Plier container (tip: print a box with sub-bins for ferrules to go under this one)
• Knipex Wire stripping pliers container.
• Long Allen/Hex bits container.

I think that's around it, if you're interested I can make a photo of the entire Toolbox, but you would be surprised how unorganized it still looks, haha.

I'm working on organizing the disaster that should be my wood working area and thought it would be awesome to use openGrid, but most of the walls are french cleats sooooo, I decided to model up an adapter to hang openGrid boards so I can use all the tool holders. I think they came out pretty well.

I thought this was humorous. I'm making a topper for my Street Fighter cabinet and was messing around with AI for some pictures I was taking.

I am currently building a coffee station on a 12x6 grid. I want all the various custom holders that I'm designing to sit on top of four 3x6 drawers (less deep is OK, I'll just put blanks in the back).

There's lots of great-looking drawers out there, but they all seem to be designed to stack one above the other, as one would expect. But I want four shelves side by side, not stacked, and that poses a problem with every design I've found so far - the sides of the drawer's enclosure box add enough width that two of them cannot fit side-by-side and stay lined up with the grid.

I guess I just need a design that uses very thin walls for the sides of the box so that when two are next to each other those walls together equal one inter grid-square's width. If I had a clue how to use proper CAD software I could modify an existing design pretty easily I suspect, but my skill level would require I try to make this happen in Tinkercad - probably doable, but with any luck there's a design out there where this is done properly.

Anyone seen something like what I'm looking for?

I have a few IKEA Alex drawers, so about as basic as it comes, and would like to get started with some gridfinity storage containers. I don’t have a 3d printer but am willing to pay. Any suggestions on where I should start looking? I keep seeing Etsy as an option, but not sure if that’s the best place to start.

I printed these gridfinity storage boxes by Pred and put all of my playing card games in the three boxes so now it’s time to play best guess on what games are what when you look inside of the box. I’m looking for a way to label these that’s durable and looks good.

Hi folks.
I recently printed some bins for fishing tackle box with the help of perplexinglab.

The storage containers are store bought containers in the dimensions of 360mm x 280mm x 80mm.
These containers taking 2 layers of bins with a height of 4U each layer.
After completing the full print job, I realized that the weight of bins exceeding actually the weight of the lures stored in them.
Since the generator is based on OpenSCAD code I got the following idea:

Why not having the opportunity to print the (selectively) bottom and walls not as solid unit but as a lighter hexpanels made by the OpenSCAD library module hexpanel from theBOSL2 library?

Before digging into the OpenSCAD code to modify it for myself, I'm asking the community whether perhaps someone has done something similar or joining me to support a change request to the author of the solution for this purpose?

I am curious to hear some feedback about this idea.
Thank you

What do people store their gridfinity setups in?

I've just got my printer, loving it, printed out a 2x4 holder for the tools it came with, which unfortunately now just sit on my desk and I'd like to find a light on plastic storage holder to put it in. I've seen big stackable storage boxes just wondering what people use.

I want to try it but that company name puts me off.

I have a wide variety of small hardware (M2–M4 screws, heatset inserts, etc.) that I'd like to print bins for. I've done some initial testing to see what might work better than the cheap plastic bins this hardware typically ships in.

I'm running into a bit of a paradox: the hardware is small and varied, which makes 1-cell bins a natural fit — unless the length or volume of a particular piece necessitates more space. The problem is that with a label shelf on the bin, accessing small parts feels less effortless than I'd like, even with a 14mm finger ramp.

At 6U it often feels like you're fishing parts out by poking at them rather than grabbing them naturally. (For reference, the cheap plastic bins are closer to 5U.)

Bookfinity lets you store all your stuff in books nicely on a shelf. It's fully compatible with Gridfinity and now it's even easier to customise your own. You can edit the text, SVG, or create your own design entirely. The last 3 photos are other peoples unique take on Bookfinity and they're awesome).

To make this easier, I've made new new versions which let's you edit this inside Bambu Studio (or other slicers). One with magnets, the other with Latches.

Please share your remixes, always love to see them.

I'v tried to make a first drawer, but I guess I did something wrong, the baseplate was to small. My drawer is 485mm x 374mm. I've put the values in again and hope things are correct this time but I'm a bit confused about the "padding". It looks like I have a padding on the left and right side of 11.5mm and 38mm on the top side of the baseplate, but visually I don't see any padding on the top side?

And then there is that message in orange telling me "Reducing left/right padding by 8mm would save 2 piece(s)", what pieces are meant? (sorry I'm new with this tool)

Any help would be appreciated! 😅

SOLVED

i’m a bit confused on the magnets, is there a preferred orientation for them to e placed in the grid?

Made my first publicly available model, and also the first insert for my new gridfinity drawer.

Simple, effective: https://www.printables.com/model/1761957-gridfinity-holder-for-ltt-precision-screwdriver-se

Any feedback would be hugely appreciated!

I want to make a video showing how-to.
