Description

Gridfinity soldering iron tip bin. 1x1 units.

Base has cutouts for 6mmx2mm circular magnets.

 

5x5 array of 7.5mm diameter holes.

 

There is also a tiered version available:

Also a 4x4 array of 8.5mm diameter holes:

The print profile uses a much reduced infill and single wall outer as the cell like structure has plenty of strength for these light items.

DON'T replace hot soldering iron tips until they have cooled down sufficiently to prevent melting the bin.

 

Can produce other configurations on request.

Printed fine, plenty strong even with lower wall count. However the holes are exactly the same size as my soldering tips so they do not fit in. An extra 0.5mm on the diameter of the holes would probably do it.

Thank you for the rating in spite of it not being compatible with your soldering iron tips. The soldering iron tips I used appear to be about 0.25 inch diameter (6.4mm). Unfortunately there's simply not enough room to permit a 5x5 array of holes with a larger hole size. I have however created a 4x4 version that has a hole size of 8.5mm diameter: https://makerworld.com/en/models/447633#profileId-354343

Printed great and works fantastic. The holes are large enough for all my tips (some models are a little tight for some). I might remix to create a stadium to make seeing the tips easier but otherwise this is exactly what I needed.

Image of version with 35 degree from horizontal tiering shown. Do you think this angle is suitable for your needs?

Finally 1 place to keep everything instead of running around the house to find.

I was a bit worried about the hollow bottom, and it did result in some spaghetti in there when the printer tried to print on thin air, but it didn't matter and the final result worked great.

Can you design a thin cap/lid to go on top and snap in place slightly?

Not really because there's nothing to snap into. Gridfinity bins are intended to be held in a baseplate (eg https://makerworld.com/en/models/429152) so a lid that went outside the top would stop it fitting up against another bins.

love the minimalist use of filament, simple but effective

Prints great and in minimal time. However, you may have to add something to the individual slots to prevent smaller tips from not being visible.
