Unofficial Extensions to the Gridfinity standard? #41

Open EternityForest opened 6 months ago

Do you guys think these are suitable for inclusion?

I've designed two extensions that work with Gridfinity but are outside the normal templates that solve some of the frequent complaints I see on Reddit, although I'm sure others could do better.

The first is Go! which is a standard for modular filament pin hinge lids, which snap shut using a filament spring: https://www.printables.com/model/481628-gridfinity-go-sdmicrosd-holder-with-filament-hinge

These don't have magnet holes since they're primarily portable, although someone did an awesome remix of one of them to add them.

The second is Brix, which takes the bottom face of a bin, and extends it downward so that it nests down into another compatible bin, like upside down Lego.

The low center of gravity means you don't need any magnets, and you can just use a large bin instead of a baseplate. It's meant for things like nightstand catch-alls and desk organizers.

Wow, those look interesting. I will review in detail and then add ASAP.

Found two decent expanded versions that are more than a remix of the base or bins. Maybe you can add another section on readme for compatible expansion. https://www.printables.com/de/model/413761-gridfinity-refined/comments https://www.printables.com/de/model/765609-gridfinity
