Thin Gridfinity Magnet Base for 5x1mm magnets

Baseplates for Gridfinity, with that satisfying magnetic snap, significantly cheaper than traditional magnet base plates.

Based on the proven Gridfinity Extended “Efficient Magnetic Base”, with a number of improvements:

• Uses 5x1mm magnets instead of the 6x2mm gridfinity standard. These are cheaper, make the base slimmer and are plenty strong. Placed to fit perfectly for bins with 6x2 magnets
• Friction fit for magnets, no glue needed
• Extraction holes for magnets, use tweezers to retrieve them when you decommission old base plates
• Magnets covered by thin roof to prevent bins from pulling out magnets
• Perimeter cutouts: bins are held on at the corners and guided by sloped surfaces
• Square corners to fit your drawers and make tiling easy
• 40-45% less filament used at same settings

These baseplates hold your bins 1mm lower than Gridfinity Extended Efficient Magnetic Bases, and about 1.4mm higher than slim nonmagnetic base plates. If the fit of the magnets is off either print a calibration cube and adjust your filament settings accordingly, or adjust the X-Y hole compensation in your slicer.
