Gridfinity refined (at least in my humble opinion) …<h4>Gridfinity Specification</h4>Gridfinity is a set of guidelines and standards, created by Zack Freedman. The general guideline is that everything is a multiple of 7. Baseplate grids are made up of squares that are 42x42 mm. The heights of the bins/widgets that go into the grids are a multiple of 7 (in theory). I have a more complete <a href="https://www.printables.com/model/417152-gridfinity-specification" rel="nofollow">Gridfinity Specification available</a>.<h4>Refinements</h4>This implementation of gridfinity honors all of the standards and builds upon them to provide some refinements as well as some alternative options for securing the bins into the baseplate. This implementation also includes a simple method to expand the baseplates beyond the size that you can print on your 3D printer.Nothing here is really earth shattering or even completely unique, but it does “refine” the implementation of Gridfinity.<h4>Bin/Widget Implementations</h4><a href="https://www.printables.com/model/414477-gridfinity-refined-printer-tools" rel="nofollow">Gridfinity Refined (Printer Tools)</a> <a href="https://www.printables.com/model/414626-gridfinity-refined-valet" rel="nofollow">Gridfinity Refined (Valet)</a><h4>Magnets</h4>We start out by providing press-fit holes for the 6x2mm magnets on the bottom of the baseplate. If you do need any glue, it won't interfere with the normal usage.<figure class="image image_resized" style="width:50%;"><img src="https://makerworld.bblmw.com/makerworld/draft/604123/2024-02-29_v3y6dg6mytiw.png"></figure><blockquote>Experimenting with 6x2mm washers in the baseplate. Will let you know how it goes.</blockquote>The magnets for the bottom of the bins/profiles are inserted into the side of the widgets. No glue needed.<figure class="image image_resized" style="width:50%;"><img src="https://makerworld.bblmw.com/makerworld/draft/604123/2024-02-29_09hkimqllbs0.png"></figure>These slots line up with the “standard” positioning of magnets for the gridfinity baseplate. So, these bins/profiles can be used with any of your already existing baseplates. Again, no glue needed.<h4>Non-magnetic Securing</h4>If you need to secure your bins to the baseplate so they don't come loose at all, a special screw hole and corresponding thumbscrew have been provided.<figure class="image image_resized" style="width:50%;"><img src="https://makerworld.bblmw.com/makerworld/draft/604123/2024-02-29_o5509xdkvkl3.png"></figure><figure class="image image_resized" style="width:50%;"><img src="https://makerworld.bblmw.com/makerworld/draft/604123/2024-02-29_bonwc380o6vu.png"></figure>The screw hole will not interfere with other baseplates, but the bin cannot be secured to the other baseplates using the thumbscrew.There is a provided “Bin Screw Hole” STL that can be used with a boolean operator in your 3D design package to create a threaded hole in other bins.<h4>Larger baseplates</h4>A simple butterfly wedge lock is provided for fastening multiple baseplates together.<figure class="image image_resized" style="width:50%;"><img src="https://makerworld.bblmw.com/makerworld/draft/604123/2024-02-29_tuvzk06khkq7.png"></figure><figure class="image image_resized" style="width:50%;"><img src="https://makerworld.bblmw.com/makerworld/draft/604123/2024-02-29_tfqq88a8umyk.png"></figure><h4>Minimal Baseplates</h4>For those not interested in the “screw hole” but still want the “wedge” fasteners and press-fit magnets. <a href="https://www.printables.com/@EricD_165800" rel="nofollow">EricD</a> created a <a href="https://www.printables.com/model/483292-gridfinity-refined-minimal" rel="nofollow">remix</a>, which inspired a new “minimal/lite” version that uses less filament. Look in the “Baseplates-Minimal” folder.<figure class="image image_resized" style="width:50%;"><img src="https://makerworld.bblmw.com/makerworld/draft/604123/2024-02-29_hd2pm7d71gse.png"></figure><h4>Stackable Grids</h4>Think about stackable grids as a stable level playing field that is built on top of other stackable bins. There are even special “bins” that can be secured into the grid (with thumbscrews) that operate as handles (orange in the picture below).<figure class="image image_resized" style="width:50%;"><img src="https://makerworld.bblmw.com/makerworld/draft/604123/2024-02-29_k9iwpvsbws34.png"></figure>The stackable grid also has slots for magnets.<h4>Fusion 360 Files</h4>The Fusion 360 files have been provided so you can import them into Fusion 360 to make your own widgets very easily. Simply open the project and the select “Modify→Change Parameters”, then enter the number of gridfinity columns and rows and the number of gridfinity layers (7mm units).If you don't have Fusion 360, you can start with the “Bin Base” in the “Core” folder. Place it in your favorite 3D modeling program and then replicate it based on 42mm. Then build a box with rounded corners on top and customize to your liking.<h4>Mounting Options</h4>The Mounting for 4040 extrusions is currently being reworked and tested. And of course, nothing in the 3D printing world happens really fast.<figure class="image image_resized" style="width:50%;"><img src="https://makerworld.bblmw.com/makerworld/draft/604123/2024-02-29_s7xe3nlocnk9.png"></figure>Other mounting options are coming soon. Think: wall-mounted, pegboard, and several others.<h3>Printing</h3>Surprisingly enough, I have had great success with printing with only 3 walls, top, and bottom layers, and using lightning infill (I have also had very good success with only 2 walls, top and bottom). No supports should be necessary.For baseplates you will want to print with 3-5 walls to make the gridfinity walls stronger.The mounts should be printed on their sides.Most of the parts that require more substantial internal support have been designed with that support integrated into the model. As a very simple example the wedge-locks used to secure baseplates together.<figure class="image image_resized" style="width:50%;"><img src="https://makerworld.bblmw.com/makerworld/draft/604123/2024-02-29_caxlb44ujy1a.png"></figure>Or the 4040 mounts.<figure class="image image_resized" style="width:50%;"><img src="https://makerworld.bblmw.com/makerworld/draft/604123/2024-02-29_uepnfx75batm.png"></figure>All models have been tuned for 0.4mm or 0.6mm nozzles.PLA or PLA+ have been thoroughly tested and tuned.For those having fitment problems with the butterfly wedge locks. I have tried making them tighter and looser. I suggest printing out a few; if they don't fit then, please scale them in your slicer.&nbsp;<h3>Change History</h3>2023-05-19: slightly larger (read that as tighter fit) Plate-to-Plate file.2023-05-18: Inspired by a remix by <a href="https://www.printables.com/@EricD_165800" rel="nofollow">EricD</a>, added a “lite” version of the grid that is absent the Thumbscrew hole to reduce the amount of filament needed for those not interested in the Thumbscrew.2023-05-09: tweak some of “hidden” slicer walls for better strength and better compatibility with 0.6mm nozzles.2023-05-09: add new folder of “Blanks” that are bins that can built upon for your custom usage.2023-03-25: retune to smoothly support 0.6mm nozzles.2023-03-13: Add stackable grids2023-03-09: tweak the settings to make the “pressure-fitted” magnets fit better. Allow for printing with only 2 walls, tops, and bottoms. Rename to be consistent with the “standard” regarding “XxYxZ” (previously I was using Z as the first number.

The content is too long and has been truncated<h3>UPDATES: </h3><ol><li>April 7th: Added support for 24V 4020 fans on V2 design (should also work for V1 designs). If using 24V fans, trim the boost converter output to 24.0 instead of 12.0 </li><li>April 7th: Added “wireless test jig” to help with assembled coil testing before installing the enclosure. Simply mount the transmitter box into the allotted space and align the receiver box on the debossed corner. The receiver coil should be over the non-perforated region of the base.</li></ol>&nbsp;<h3>WIRELESS POWER:</h3>The major change here is that I added an wireless receiver module to the bottom of the assembly coupled with a wireless transmitter module for installation under the unit. Alignment between the receiver and transmitter was determined via a 3D scan of the X1C and should be as close to perfect as you can get in X, Y, and Z (z-distance matters as much as X and Y). Everything is magnet or friction fit installable and requires no modification to the printer housing. Power is supplied via an external micro-USB port and the instructions provide parts for a completely solder-free assembly.&nbsp;<blockquote><h3>V2 BENTO BOX</h3></blockquote><h4>Printed Parts</h4><img

1) Install the wireless transmitter into the transmitter box by carefully laying the coil (coil side down) into the box. Note: This is definitely the most sensitive step in the installation. The ferrite disc is extremely brittle and can easily crack from point forces. If the disc breaks, the transmitter will likely drop enough in efficiency that it will no longer transfer enough power to run the fans. Because of part-to-part variation, you may need to fiddle a bit to get the coil to sit properly in the housing. It is critical that the coil lay flat in the housing. 2) Slot the transmitter PCB into its port and push it down onto the retaining clip. Note: Because of part-to-part variation, you may need to fiddle a bit to get the PCB to sit properly in the housing. Pull back on the retaining clip, but be careful not to snap it. <img src="https://media.printables.com/media/prints/441292/rich_content/6614f49e-a17e-4999-8a7e-d7f67b144e95/img_5638.jpg#%7B%22uuid%22%3A%22ac4e3493-d661-44a4-8a12-15d412477834%22%2C%22w%22%3A4032%2C%22h%22%3A3024%7D"> </li><li>Trim power converter <img src="https://media.printables.com/media/prints/441292/rich_content/7907b9e1-f672-46ce-9fa7-1e29dc94c939/img_5654.jpg#%7B%22uuid%22%3A%227fb0573f-9d5d-48de-964b-1879cca03f32%22%2C%22w%22%3A3024%2C%22h%22%3A2547%7D"> 1) The boost converter linked has a variable output and needs to be trimmed to 12V (for 12 fans) or 24V (for 24V fans) before assembling.
