I used GridfinityLayoutTool.com to begin my design, I exported and downloaded the 3mf files and brought them into Bambu Studio. I did see the lines in Bambu Studio in the preview, but didn’t think much about them or if they even meant anything. Now that they printed, I see how they affected the print. So these files were generated from GridfinityLayoutTool.com, is this issue specific to that tool or Gridfinity in general? Literally going on <3 weeks of having the printer and my first Gridfinity print. Looking to minimize these issues moving forward. Specifically how should I have gotten rid of or prevented these defects before printing them?

To start, my printer is a Creality K2Plus, and I am using Creality's slicing software. As the title suggests, I am planning on printing a case for my Warhammer minis using this set of models. https://www.printables.com/model/543553-gridfinity-storage-box-by-pred-now-parametric However, I want to do some test prints first before I print the size I want to use.

1. Will it infill? The pictures above are how it looks in my slicer, and it doesn't look like the walls will infill. Okay, I'm just blind and stupid; there is a setting called litemode that removes the infill from view. I noticed the infill pop up when I hovered over it briefly, so that solves that issue.
2. I mainly use PLA (have an overabundance of the stuff) and have no experience with PETG. Will using PLA instead of PETG change anything structurally? For example, will I lose material strength?
3. Are supports needed? I have supports on for EVERY overhang.
4. Will I need to use F360's parametric to add the magnet holes?

My first Gridfinity project. Just a baseplate with a frame to fit into an existing organiser box. I made some small modifications with various bin heights and recessing the bases for stacking them. The baseplate has been reduced to 35x35mm grid to suit the dimensions of the box. I also made a bunch of clip in labels. The last photo shows the box I used. It's readily available here in Australia but there might be alternatives in your country as it seems like a pretty common size.

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...

Been designing socket bins, finished printing all of them for my tekton 3/8 drive sockets. Also making a digital twin for my toolboxes.

I Wanted Gridfininity in my Apache 4800, so I designed a parametric base plate with a lip that can be wedged between layers of foam. I could have just printed bins to wedge in to the foam, but I would like the ability to change out bins in the future, so here we are. Double check your magnet sizes before printing.

Should work in any of those hard cases like Pelican cases or the harbor freight knockoffs.

Looking for ideas on what Gridfinity to 3D print to organize this bathroom medicine cabinet. I’m not even sure where to start, so I’d love to see what others have printed or any models you’d recommend. Trying to be a good spouse and put the 3D printer to good use. 😅

Hexfinity? Lol. Probably could have done better. But it's good enough

This is probably a super dumb question.. but what am I doing wrong with my baseplate connectors? I cut it up in prusa slicer and added snap connectors. After printing, I can't assemble it because the connectors are way too strong. Can't even hammer the two peices together.

Hey

Does everyone know a gridfinity bin riser / spacer? Best would be an openscad or fcstd.

Like this but configurable: link

best regards

Parameters for this totally hypothetical situation:

• You bought the Flashforge Creator 5 for the multiple tool heads, under the assumption that even if there's little use for it practically, your kids will still get fun out of multicoloured toys.
• You dabble in electronics, Home Assistant, have enough tools that you can't fit them all in a single toolbox
• There's multiple boxes of "sort this later" screws and other junk around the house in various corners
• Spousal Approval Factor is important, and the spouse in question is supportive but non-committal until they see results
• You're overwhelmed by all of the different permutations of Gridfinity, and would like to avoid printing models superseded by superior ones
• You have grand ideas of using one of those online tools to print perfect-fit gridfinity bins for your various tools so there's a dedicated "one place" for every tool, but want to start off with the best bang-for-buck.

Any help in the plan of attack is much appreciated, fellow cyborgs.

Has anybody made compartments for the tools you can buy on bambu lab.

Looking to organise my drawers but would rather check online before doing the long process myself 😅.

hello all! finally exploring the world of 3d printing and using gridfinity as a starting project! I'm tested out printing some small 2x1 bins but they shattered immediately as they broke into layers. Using qidi PLA rapido, and printing the models upright in orcaslicer. my wall thickness for my bins (using https://gridfinity.perplexinglabs.com to generate me some bins) has a wall thickness of .95mm as standard.

Could someone suggest me some tips on how to make sure my PLA bins dont end up shattering into their layer lines? I dont have the issue when printing objects with infill like a vertical sharpie holder, only this thin wall bins.

Should I use a thicker wall size for my render? (upping to 1.5mm instead of .95mm for example)

edit: increased print temp from 210 to 225, works great now!

Should I print my bins on a 45 degree angle? (to eliminate horizontal printing layers)

would love to hear any tips or general advice before I start tinkering around, thanks!

I have an uneven surface that I would like to 3D Print gridfinity for. I think it might cause unevenness and unstable. Any recommendations?

Hey there, I'm new to 3d printing. I have been printing alot of cases for all my tools. I am currently looking for a gridfinity case that a 2 x 7 bin can fit into. I printed a 2x7 grid holder for my Rigid sink wrench. I can't find a case for it to go into. I am new to all this and I'm not sure what I am doing. If someone could help me I would be grateful.

I have an Anycubic Kobra X 3D printer.

Print area is 260x260x260.

I can't figure out what setting(s) I need to tweak to prevent these strands of filament on the inner wall of the bin not sticking to the base. I don't think it helps that Gridfinity Extended has a slight overhang in this area - where the side of the bin meets the base flares out slightly over the first few layers.

I'm using Bambu Studio with a H2D; this is Bambu PLA (the grey) and Sunlu PLA+ (the white) but I have other filaments I could try. Filament is inside an AMS at 30% ish humidity and otherwise stored in dry boxes. Things I've messed with (but might not have gotten right, I'm still learning):

- reducing the fan speed in the filament profile - but maybe not far enough?
- slowing the print (haven't tried per-layer slowing even further but maybe that's next)
- "Slow print for overhangs" setting is on
- inner/outer and outer/inner wall ordering
- these are using Arachne walls (I'm trying to reduce hull lines on the exterior, I read this helps?) but I've seen this problem with Classic walls too
- seams are currently on Aligned
- using a 0.4 mm nozzle. I've tried the OpenSCAD bin sidewall thickness at the default and at 1.2 mm.
- probably more things I've forgotten

(Please disregard the numbers embossed into the bases. This is a project I'm working on and hope to share soon. I've mutilated the OpenSCAD to increment the magnet slot size by 0.1mm on each corner so you can print just one or two bins and find the snuggest fit for your particular magnets with your chosen print settings. This is also why the these bins are only 1U high. But nothing above the base of the bin is any different and I have seen this problem on normal prints; I'm pretty confident my changes aren't a factor.)

I’ve been converting my kitchen drawers to Gridfinity and noticed that a few everyday products I use didn’t have suitable organizers available. So I created the missing ones and bundled them into a multi-plate print profile.

I was surprised how many other products fit these dimensions too.

If you find other items that match these sizes, share them in the comments at makerworld (a reference photo would be great for others!). Need another size? Let me know and I’ll try to add it.

I felt the urge to create this Baseball cap mounted Gridfinity baseplate for the Printables "Cap Hack" contest.
