Need Gridfinity bins that actually stay shut? Here’s a full family of magnet-latched, hinged-lid boxes—ready to drop straight onto your Gridfinity board.
⚠️ Each included Bambu print profile has a pre-programmed pause right before the magnet cavities close, so you can drop the magnets in and resume the print—no manual tweaking needed.
(all boxes are 8 U tall ≈ 56 mm outside / 42 mm usable)
There are 16 sizes total (every combo from 2×2 up to 5×5, 1x1, 1x2, 2x1)—pick the one that fits your tools, bits or hobby parts.
Snap-shut lid – four 6 × 2 mm magnets hold it closed; a tiny chamfer makes one-hand opening easy.
Reliable hinge – a clipped filament axle (⌀ 1.75 mm) means no fiddly pins or glue.
Tag slot up front – comes with a ready-to-edit Make-My-Sign template so you can label contents.
Print-friendly – zero supports, flat top surfaces, and chamfers on every overhang.
Pre-tuned Bambu profiles – each has an automatic Pause At Layer before the magnet pockets close. Load magnets, resume, done.
Printing tips
Use 15-20 % gyroid or grid infill.
PLA works great.
Insert four 6 × 2 mm magnets when the printer pauses.
Snip a piece of 1.75 mm filament (preferably PETG), slide it through the hinge.
Insert Magnets and Continue Print
When your printer pauses during the print:
Carefully insert the magnets into the designated holes.
If your tolerances are loose and the magnet doesn’t fit snugly, you can use a tiny drop of glue to hold it in place during the print.
If tolerances are tight, no glue is needed — the print will secure the magnet naturally.
Once magnets are inserted, press “Continue Print” on the printer screen.
Hinge: Cut a piece of 1.75mm filament (preferably PETG for durability) and push it through the hinge holes after printing.
The default hinge hole is sized at 1.96mm to accommodate common filament tolerances.
Minor plastic buildup or stringing during printing may require a quick cleanup with a needle or drill bit to ensure smooth axle insertion.
