Description

These are for the smaller 4mm hex bits. For standard 1/4" / 6.25mm bits, see this model.

The print profile has 4 plates with versions packing 20, 30, 42 or 52 4mm bits into a single 1x1 bin size. I left off the lip to improve bit access. The hex holes are sized and chamfered to improve ease of insertion/removal.

To achieve good access to the bits, I recommend the version that holds 20 bits. The 30 and 42 bit versions can be fiddly to get bits out of. The 52 bit version is very efficient on space, while requiring something like needle nose pliers to get at all the bits.

The base is compatible with half-sized grid and has holes for optional magnets/screws. The base was initially generated with the Fusion GridfinityGenerator.

I found the slots too loose and the spacing too close, making it clumsy to get bits out.

Hi. Any chance of a photo of the bits in the holder so I can see what is going on?

@user_1916351746

Replying to @TooManyThings :

Of course! And thanks for the reply. See the attached. The bits will freely spin in the spot. Printed in PETG HF on A1 Mini

Replying to @user_1916351746 :

OK, I see. Thanks for the photo. :-) I do recommend the 20 bit holder to get good bit access. The clearances on the holes is a tricky one. I can spin my bits in my print of the 30 bit holder, although I do have to force it the first time. The challenge with making them tighter is that variations in the printing tolerances mean some holes will grab the bit and then the entire holder will lift out of the grid. This actually happens on the 52 bit version of the holder, where I had to tighten the holes a little to get decent wall thickness.

@tioan

can you create a version for 25 bits?

Hi, unfortunately have fairly limited time to spread across my 3D printing projects.

Printed well, and bits fit good, not to tight and not to loose.
