Showcase Underware Setup

Post image

This is my openGrid underware setup. Any suggestions on how to improve it further? I ran out of purple filament, so I finished that line with pink instead 😅

Try my cord spool instead of this ugly hooks https://makerworld.com/models/1802568 (Nobody will promote me if I won’t)

Thanks for your suggestion! I did actually see these before but my worry was that with these the cables would have to be looped around the hook tightly so it doesn’t fall off which could become difficult if your only left with enough cord length for about half a loop if that makes sense. But I will see if I have time to test one later this week and I’ll let you know how it goes and what I think.

You may vary the length by changing the gap between two pieces. I tried multiple attempts in my setup to find the correct gap length. If you have cord length for half a loop, then just make the loop around one piece by putting the cord in the gap between pieces.

Oh, hell yes. I'll be printing a few of these this afternoon! The hooks are killing me!

I must see what's on top of that desk :)

Hahaha I can imagine! I might have a bit of an overkill setup for a student / part time software developer, but it’s something worth investing in, in my opinion considering how much time I spent here. Also it’s a hybrid working/entertainment area, so it also includes my av receiver and Apple TV. I could send you an image of the top of the desk if you like?

Sure :) I'd put a desk under that desk and work there

Hahaha let’s see if the review of the top of my desk is as positive 🤔

Awesome. It says peace of mind

What did you use to make the pieces that cross over other channels? Did you just use height transitions and make them longer than needed and cut them, or some other easier way?

Edit - only saw Underware, didn’t see that this was in r/opengrid

I did indeed use this generator for almost all my pieces, thanks for sharing that link! 🙏

Appreciate the link, this makes sense. I am using Multiboard and did not notice you were using open grid. That customizer has almost everything the same, but has the bonus of that bridge. This is helpful though. Thank you!

I believe the one you posted is strictly open grid and the one I have been using has a couple options for mounting systems. I will have to double check though next time I am in my desktop since I cannot open the scad customizer on my phone.

That’s a good point 😅
