With the customize button, you can effortlessly adjust the model’s dimensions, logos, and text styles to suit your needs.

Changelog:

REV1.1: Hardware image support added for your different Bolts, nuts and more! Also flat / extruded text option added! & UI improvements.
REV1.2: Filters out empty text rows and vertically centers the rows. Thank to @LongracksLabs
No logo option added

Key Customization Options:

Size Customization: Adjust the label’s size via the Y_units setting, with options like 4, 5, 7, and 8 units, ensuring a perfect fit with the Gridfinity storage system.
Logo Choice: Select an emoji or character logo for the left side. Choose from popular emojis or special characters, like @ or M3, for a personalized touch.
Text Content: Enter desired text labels for each section (e.g., "Bolts," "Nuts") with up to four lines.
Font and Style: Choose from various fonts, including Noto Sans and Roboto, and styles like "Bold" or "Italic" for a tailored look.
Additional Settings: Customize the width, height, corner radius, and even add a chamfered edge for a polished finish.

Printing Recommendations:

I used a 0.4mm nozzle for my prints, but for the best results, especially on finer text, a 0.2mm nozzle is recommended.
To achieve a beautifully textured finish on the text, you can rotate the model 180 degrees so the text faces the build plate.
Note that Bambu Studio’s “Lay Flat” feature may not position the model correctly; manually rotating it 180 degrees is recommended for optimal orientation.

Extra Options: Add a visual divider line next to the logo to clearly mark different sections. This model is perfect for use in workshops, hobby rooms, or storage spaces, keeping your Gridfinity storage boxes well-organized and visually streamlined.

Your support enables me to design, experiment, and bring new creations to life, so every boost is greatly appreciated!

This is great! A few enhancements I have made locally: - I like printing my labels raised (.2mm) rather than flat. So an option for "flat" or "raised" - like your gridfinity bin label code has. - I like my rows centered, especially if i have few than 4 rows of text. So i have a mod that filters out empty text and prints the rows distributed vertically center. Here is an example of both (at .2 nozzle). Let me know if you want to make this change i can send you the code. Is this an enhancement you would be willing to make to your version? I could remix but not sure its good to have a fork fork of this. good stuff!

Thank u for the extended comment! I’ve added the option with extruded or flush text on my local version (same as in the bin label) But haven’t had time to clean up the code and update it online. Send me your code with the self centering text so I can implement that as well! :D

Replying to @laurensguijt :

module render_text() { // Array of text lines lines = [Line_1_text, Line_2_text, Line_3_text, Line_4_text]; // Filter out empty lines non_empty_lines = [for (line = lines) if (line != "") line]; // Number of non-empty lines num_lines = len(non_empty_lines); echo("Total non-empty lines:", num_lines); if (num_lines > 0) { effective_height = width * (1 - 2 * margin_factor); // Reduce height by the margin // Calculate spacing based on effective height line_spacing = effective_height / (num_lines - 1); // Apply linear extrusion to render text with thickness linear_extrude(z_max) { for (i = [0 : num_lines - 1]) { // Position text lines dynamically, with reversed order translate([((length / 2) + width / 2), width - (effective_height + margin_factor * width) + line_spacing * (num_lines - 1 - i), 0]) text(non_empty_lines[i], size=text_size, font=Font, halign="center", valign="center"); } } } }

I wish I never saw packout stuff before. My next thing would be these bins. If we could see through then it would be perfect. Petg translucent isn't clear enough. For me it's knowing if Im low on screws without opening the case. But I will still print this case for other stuff. Pred doesn't have it here.

@Wachuwamekil

I’ve seen folks going the same direction on passes and having better results. the light isn’t refracting as crazy that way.

@Glamonica

I went with DeWalt Tough System instead of M:PO long before I owned a 3D printer and I've either added slots for these pred cases (especially the really big ones on printables) inside my rolling box or in some of my stackable boxes I've glued (technically plastic welded) gridfinity grids to the bottom and use different sized bins.

@C8Doc

Replying to @Glamonica :

Just bought a few more of Dewalt system ones you are mentioning. Home depot has them on sale for 12$!

This was super helpful in getting my boxes organized in a clean looking way. I printed labels for M3, M4 and M5. Since I do not have as many M2 and M2.5 hardware I wanted to combine these into a single 5x5x6U box. The one downside to the customizer (the only one) is that it does not have an option for multiple lines of text on the left side ("Logo"). I stumbled through OpenSCAD and made a very crude change to let me get two lines. Its not parametric, so that may be a good addition to the model, but I pasted it below in case someone wants it. I had to replace everything that was originally in the render_char(LOGO) module. Also to get "M2.5" to fit with the vertical bar on the label the way I wanted, I used a font size of 7, so allowing a smaller font size in the customizer would be nice. module render_char(LOGO) { linear_extrude(z_max) translate([(width/2), width / 1.35, 0]) rotate([0,0,LOGO_ROTATION]) rotate([0,0,-0]) text("M2", size=7, halign="center", valign="center"); linear_extrude(z_max) translate([(width/2), width / 3.5, 0]) rotate([0,0,LOGO_ROTATION]) rotate([0,0,-0]) text("M2.5", size=7, halign="center", valign="center");

Thank u!

@LongracksLabs

love this model/code. nicely done.

@Dutchapple4life

Why is it that when I press the customize button nothing happens? Am I doing something wrong or do I need to download some software?

The designer has replied

@laurensguijt

That's weird, a new window should open with a lot of customisation options. Maybe a bug in makerworld ? You could try a different internet browser :) Edit: Are you pressing the customize button in the image ? This is a dummy one ^^

Replying to @laurensguijt :

You're right. I have used a different web browser and indeed get a different screen... mmmm, I could have thought of that myself...
