They look better than my stick on labels. And they are straight too. I believe I'm going to invert the colours before I print them all. I went with the smooth text and that made the colour a little lighter. Black text on white will work better for me.

Agree! The background color of the label should match you bin color :) You can change the colors in the configurator

You sure can change the colour, and I did. It looks much better. I'll try to come back with a photo once I get the whole thing done. More editing than I realised. And my screw types are more varied than I remember. But I'll get there.

Looking forward to the images! You should give the batch exporter a try, I got sick of all the manual work for all the combinations myself and this really sped up the process :)

This is issue in the configurator. Could you estimate how much mm the label needs to be extended ?

Replying to @laurensguijt :
the boxes have 78.5 mm to the beginning of the flaps. the 2x label is currently 71.5 mm (to the flaps; total length is 73.5)

Wow that looks great! I will have to print the threaded insert box myself too! Would you mind If I add your picture to the model page ?!

Thanks for the awesome label generator! I went to town on these last night and finally organized my M3 and M4 fasteners and the single-width bin labels are fantastic!. I ran into an issue however when trying a 2 Y-unit bin label. The labels are not wide enough - see my second picture. (I'm guessing the generator is doing a simple doubling of the width of the single Y-unit labels, which doesn't account for the bin lip widths that are eliminated in multi-wide bins.)

I love your box and the labels—they look great! I’m planning to use them for my bolts and nuts. Thank you so much for sharing this design! I was also wondering if you could maybe add T-nut labels as well?

Amazing! I added wood screws for myself in case you want to add them too, length should be correct sicne wood screws are measured differently. // Side view of the bolt head         translate([6.6, 0, 0])         //triangle         cylinder(r=3, h=text_height, $fn=3);                 // Side view of the bolt stem, with a gap if hardware_length > 20         if (hardware_length > 20) {             // Cap the visible length at 20 units and add a gap in the middle             translate([7, -1.25, 0])               cube([8.5, 2.5, text_height]);  // First half (10 units)            translate([7 + 12, -1.25, 0])               cube([5, 2.5, text_height]);  // Second half (10 units)             linear_extrude(text_height)             translate ([7+12+5,0])             polygon([[0,1.25],[2,0],[0,-1.25]],[[0,1,2]]);                     } else {            // Regular full-length stem if hardware_length <= 20             translate([7, -1.25, 0])               cube([hardware_length-1.5, 2.5, text_height]);             linear_extrude(text_height)             translate ([hardware_length + 5.5,0])             polygon([[0,1.25],[2,0],[0,-1.25]],[[0,1,2]]);        }

Awesome work! I love what you did. Could you help me understand where to place the code in the SCAD file? I’m not entirely sure how to do it. Should I create a new module myself, or is there a different approach?

What a great project. Thanks for all your hard work and the results speak for themselves. Much appreciated. Would it be possible to add Torx or Star Head Screws?

Like others I have been using a sticker label maker to make labels for boxs/bins/drawers/totes/whatever else. When I found a remix of the Gridfinity boxes by Pred and planned on printing a bunch of them I assumed I would use my trusty ole' label maker... then I found these and my mind was blown. A bunch of options, and the screw lengths are actually accurate - super cool. I have not even explored them all. A feature request that would be helpful is the ability to split a label for 1x1 bin in half so two items can be listed for the split bins 1x1 bins - kind of similar to your box label with the vertical line divider. My usage would probably be limited to Standard Nuts/Locking Nuts and Regular Washers/Split Washers.... but it may be possible to combine others. Also, what about options for magnets or bearings? Just a thought!

        // Top view of heat insert         difference() {             union() {                 cylinder(h=text_height, r=2.5, $fn=5);             rotate (36) cylinder(h=text_height, r=2.5, $fn=5);                   }                     cylinder (h=text_height, r=1.5, $fn=80);         }

Great project, double boosted! Any chance of an M3 Locknut or a screw/bolt with a Phillips or regular head? Also, is there a gridfinity box in a 5U height size this works best with? Thanks!

Thank u for the boosts! These two are already on the planning :) Stay tuned for future updates! 5U is a bit uncommon, but you could search the parametric bins from pred on printables and customize the hight in Fusion360. Let me know if you need help!
