This is a mini 1x2 version of my 4x4 Gridfinity Box for Stuff (v3.3) 6U and 12U, and is intended for folks who want to test the fit of parts before going all in on a much longer print of the larger boxes. The assembly is the same, but due to the space constraints there is no handle or label on these. Currently there is only a gasket version, since I wanted to give this model as many of the features that could be tested as possible.

See the 20 bin model for printing and assembly suggestions, since this version is the same, just (much) smaller. I have a build guide on my blog with some tips on assembly. The instructions are for a case with more features, but it shows how to assemble the latches and hinges.

It requires the following hardware:

(1) M3 x 12mm SHCS (these hold the latch “cleats” to the top of the case)
(1) M3 x 20mm SHCS
(1) M3 x 16mm SHCS or (1) M3 x 35mm SHCS
(1) M3 x 30mm SHCS
(8) 6x2mm Cylinder Magnets - OPTIONAL
(SHCS = Socket Head Cap Screws)

The only files that are different from the original design, are the parts for the top and bottom (base) of the case. All latch, label, and handle parts are carried over unchanged from the original (but are included here for convenience).

PLA can be used for the boxes, but PETG is recommended for the latches. The gasket should be run in TPU (though it will still close without a gasket as well). A 3MF 4 plate profile is included. It uses the following settings:

• PLA for all parts but the latches (PETG) and gasket (TPU)
• 0.4mm X1 Carbon profile
• 3 Walls
• Arachne wall generator
• 20% gyroid infill on most parts, with 100% on the latches and gasket.
• No Supports

AMS is not required, but here is how it is set up in the profile:
1 = PLA- Gray
2 = PLA - Blue
3 = PLA - Orange
4 = PLA - White
5 = TPU - White (this is the non-AMS spool on the back)
6 = PETG - Blue (used for the latches only)

I recommend that you test that your printer can run TPU without issues first. The cap of a sharpie is the tool I use to press the TPU gasket into place. The gasket is not symmetrical so make sure to verify the position before installing it Start by pressing in the middle of the gasket along all 4 sides, then once it's set in position, press in the corners.

Other stuff:

If you need some bins for small parts, the following bins with covers are a good option to use with the Box For Stuff 20 bin and 25 bin cases (or other 6U tall cases):

1. 1 compartment 2x1 (6U) bin with a magnet pickup tool
2. 1x1, 1x2 (3 Compartment) and 1x4 (6Compartment) bins with lids (6U) - version 2.1
3. 1x2, 1x3, 1x4 (6U and 12U) Lidded Bin for Stuff with Latch Version 2.0
4. 2x2, 2x3, 2x4 (6U and 12U) Lidded Bin for Stuff with Latch Version 2.0
5. 3x3, 3x4 (6U and 12U) Lidded Bin for Stuff with Latch Version 2.0

If you want to check out my other Gridfinity cases, you can find them at the links below:

1. Gridfinity Box For Stuff 20 bin (6U)
2. Gridfinity Box For Stuff 25 bin (6U) (max size for a Bambu X1C/P1S)
3. Gridfinity Box For Stuff 16 bin (6U) (Ender 3 size)
4. Gridfinity Box For Stuff 16 bin - 12U deep version (Ender 3 size)
5. Gridfinity Box For Stuff 2 bin (6U) (small test version)

Additionally, there are some alternate latch parts, which may help if you do not have the M3x30mm screws or have difficulty installing the latch “cleat”.

If you want to store some metric hardware in this, Ch3vr0n posted some segmented bins for the Gridfinity system here:
