This is my design for a case for holding Gridfinity bins.  My design goals included: - Clean design - No Hardware - Able to stand on ends and back - Contents stay in place - Easy to open and securely close - Stackable - Designed for 3D printing While I appreciate the most excellent rugged boxes by Yanev and Whity (I've printed a few!)  I wanted something that was tailored to gridfinity, and that leaned into what we can do with 3D printing without injection molding design language. Accessories - The small bins in the pictures can be found here: Gridfinity Deep 1x1 Bins - Andreas Mass designed a divider add-on to keep parts from mixing in divided bins. - Louis set up a configurable label maker for 3D printed labels. - There's an excellent online bin generator: https://gridfinity.perplexinglabs.com/ Important print the calibration part first.  It will save you a lot of effort later! The case was designed for 0.2mm layers and 0.4mm nozzle.   A 0.6mm nozzle may work, but with Input Shaper the time savings are minimal.  Layer heights other than 0.2mm may cause problems with fit as the design assumes 0.2mm.  0.1mm might work, but I don't have the patience to try it. Change Log Rev1: - Initial release Rev2: - 100% compatible with rev1 parts! - Added support for magnets in the case - Allowed for thinner sheet material - Added “window” part for printing a solid color top without supports - Opened up the upper short-link passage to make assembly easier Updated name to “Modern Gridfinity Case” per feedback that it wasn't exactly minimalist. Required materials - Filament of your choice, I tested PETG and PLA.  You'll need extra filament for the hinge pins.  The pictured examples are printed in Printed Solid Jessie PETG in white , gun metal grey and mystery orange . - PET or acrylic sheet, between 0.75mm and 0.85mm thick.  This can often be bought as picture/poster frame replacement ‘glass’.  You can use up to 1.8mm sheet but will need to re-export the file from onshape with your material thickness specified.  The material I purchased was listed as 1mm thick but is actually 0.8mm. Variants I have included projects for 3 sizes, for the Prusa MINI+ the Prusa MK4 and the Prusa XL with and without a window.  If you would like a different size or options you can export your own from  onshape .  An onshape account is required. You can get a free onshape account by signing up here . Options - X units: Number of 42mm Gridfinity Units  wide the case is.  Valid values: 2-8 - Y units: Number of 42mm Gridfinity Units  deep the case is.  Valid values: 1-8 - Z Units: How many 7mm Gridfinity Units high is the interior of the case.  Valid values: 6-24 - Window: Include a space for a window.  For non-window designs this volume is filled with plastic.  Supports recommended for these areas. - Window thickness: Actual material thickness of the window material.  Valid values are 0.55mm - 1.8mm - Label: Add a removable label holder to the lid. (Doesn't work for X < 4) - Vertical Pin: The amount to grow  vertical 1.8mm bores to compensate for 3D printing tolerances (see: Cablibration)  Valid values: +0mm - +0.6mm - Horizontal Pin: The amount to grow  horizontal 1.8mm bores to compensate for 3D printing tolerances (see: Cablibration)  Valid values: +0mm - +0.6mm Calibration Start by printing the calibration part using the same printer, material and settings that you intend to use for the case.  Using the same filament test to see which horizontal and vertical holes the filament passes through.  You want to pick the size that's the smallest that it can  easily pass.  If you aren't sure, go up a size. If +0.3 for vertical and +0.1 for horizontal work on your calibration part then you can print the project files included here.   Otherwise I strongly recommend you export custom models. Slicing All parts use the following settings: - 0.4mm nozzle - 0.2mm layer height - 15% grid infill Latch : use 3 perimeters Label with window: Add a pause for window insertion. Cover: - Supporting the latch bump is recommended If you are printing with a window: - Add a pause for window insertion.  Note this pause height.    This should be at you window thickness (rounded to 0.2mm) plus 2mm.  Example: for 0.8mm sheet it is at 2.8mm.  For 1.55mm sheet the pause should land at 3.6mm. - Add a height modifier spanning the pause height: bridge infill direction 45 or 135 degrees so it is opposite the next layer direction. - Add a sacrificial pillar as tall as the pause height.  Move it before the cover in the parts list to ensure it prints first.  This gives the extruder time to prime the nozzle after the filament change. If you are not printing with a window, I recommend supporting the "window" openings.  You also have the option to print a solid “window” part to insert, which means no supports and a very smooth surface! Case: The rotation of the case compared to the cover is intentional.  This ensures that any small skew in your printer doesn't cause a warp in the case. Note: If you are using Bambu Studio and have trouble with the small holes, try disabling "Auto circle contour-hole compensation" Printing Bed adhesion is of critical importance in these parts.  If the case top or bottom lifts during printing then you will have gaps at the parting line or bins won't fit in the corner spots.  For this reason I have provided custom brims, I recommend using them.  Even with them you may have a small amount of lift in the corners, and this is usually ok. If you are printing PLA I recommend a smooth bed over satin, it has better adhesion.  For PETG I recommend a satin bed over a textured bed. Inserting the window The window dimensions are included in the file name.  For instance for the MK3/MK4 sized cover the window dimensions are 208mm x 166mm.  There is a +/- 0.5mm tolerance on these dimensions so you can get away cutting the sheet by hand with a hobby knife, or even using scissors. If you are printing with the window, you will need to insert it when the printer pauses.  Because of the heat of the bed the thin sheet will want to warp upwards in the corners as the bottom of the sheet expands.  There are small hold downs in the corners that you must slip the corners of the sheet under. To ease the insertion of the sheet, lay a ruler front to back across the part.  Place the sheet over the ruler and insert the sheet under the tie downs on one side.  Then while holding the other side of the sheet, twist the ruler to bow the sheet up in the middle.  Then tuck the sheet under the remaining tie downs and flatten the ruler again. Assembly Before assembling, make sure that you can push filament through the holes in the hinge and latch parts.  Occasionally these will be tight due to a stray bit of polymer in the passage.  It's really important that the filament pass through the links easily. Refer to the image below to see how the links fit into the case.   Note that the groove in the long link faces outwards and is closer to the cover. Place a short link in one of the openings at the end and start pushing filament through.  Continue til the filament exists the other side.  This is the hardest part!  If you encounter too much friction try pushing the filament through without the links first to see if there's a tight spot.   You may need to guide the filament into the next hole as it crosses a gap.  Once you reach the end, cut off the filament  and let it drop into the hole. Repeat with the long links.  Remember that the groove in the long Link faces outwards . If you have trouble inserting the filament hinge pins: - Cut a point on the end of the filament - Check that the end isn't mushroomed out, cutting can do that. - Try sanding the length of the filament a little, this especially helps with rough filaments. Now place the cover onto the case in the open position.  Align the hinge links and insert the two filaments the same as before. Repeat this process with the latch(es) Insert the label holder and you are done!
