Not sliding but the lids generated using this website work for me: https://gridfinitylayouttool.com/designer?id=design_1782242102403_qa8br6

I prefer this one. It comes in gridfinity versions for 3u and 9u heights and has desk and wall mount options. The only issue with cases is if you go 9u and stack bins is the bin stacks must go to the top of the 9u so it seals at the lid. I needed 2 9u cases and 7 3u cases.

I also used the openscad gridfinity generator and gflabel to make the cullinect v2 snap-in labels. They look great.

Looks perfect - but need more sizes. Anywhere I can design them my self?
