Open Ramblurr opened 1 year ago
You mean this?
Yes, that looks very nice. Can it be parameterized to support different sizes?
It is a bin with grid_z = 1
. You can set any size you want.
It is not the same as having a stackable baseplate like here https://www.printables.com/model/361287-gridfinity-tray-for-ikea-samla though.
https://www.printables.com/de/model/544769-miniatures-gridfinity-holders-for-storage-and-tran this is another example. I would suggest an additional lip-style. I am currently working on an openscad clone for that miniature tray. Unfortunenatly my openSCAD coding style is really not sexy. If you are open for pull requests I can still create one once I am done. But it would be good when someone looksat it in detail before merging.
My approach is to use the base plate and cut out the "gridlines" so that I have a lip wihch I will then just add to the bin
maybe I'm just stupid. I haven't printed any bin generated with this openScad lib. But the original bins actually were stackable. The lip just looks so different than on the model I downloaded and printed before
If I understand what @Ramblurr is asking for, I think it's the same kind of thing I would like. For example, I have a tower of bins and base plates in a toolbox and I don't want anything to shake around, so I want to print one more base plate that acts as a lid but still enables stackability.
A 1-height box is exactly the style of what I imagined, just tiled out instead of expanded in the same way as the base plate. For example:
This is what I want on the top surface
Note no internal bins, but the feet and the solid plane on the bottom are what I'm looking for
Maybe I'm not understanding how to use the linear compartments correctly, but I would like to print 3x3 of 1-unit boxes as an entire assembly.
I exported the two objects above, sliced and stitched them together to get:
which I'm hoping isn't just a silly thing to exist.
I would love to print some bins that I can put a lid on top of, on top of which I could stack more bins!
For my immediate usecase I wouldn't need magnets in the lid (to secure bins stacked on top), but it would be a nice bonus.
