Gridfinity archive

I dealt with all the terrible 3d printing model sites (all terrible except Printables, Printables is actually pretty good) so you don't have to!

Here is my archive of sort-of organised Gridfinity STLs and OpenSCAD scripts with maybe some gcode thrown in if i forget to remove it

Tips

I use the Dovetail base plates, not for the connectors but mainly just because they use less material than the default minimal base plates. The connectors are pretty handy, though.

I have a specific printer profile I use just for printing gridfinity stuff. I use the lowest quality and crank the speed as high as the extrusion rate will allow. Almost all gridfinity models are quite forgiving both to print and to use, so quality does not matter as much as most other prints. Some models though I have to dial the speed back or I get failures

Do not bother with more than 4 compartments per 2 blocks, for example the Window Bin x5 - 1x2x6. Perhaps this form in a shorter bin would be more practical but you simply cannot easily get your fingers in the tiny compartments of a bin with more than 4 compartments per 2 blocks.

Print big bins! You will want to print a bunch of teeny bins starting out. There is barely anything you can actually fit in these. I have a bunch of 3 unit tall bins with teeny compartments that I don't know what to do with now. Most of my stuff fits in non-divided large bins, most of the rest in divided 6 unit tall bins
