Gridfinity Split Bin - Gridfinity Master Collection


I created this collection to facilitate easy and quick printing of single (simple) Gridfinity bins. Each bin has its own named print plate, making selection of the correct size quick and easy. This collection includes all bins that fit on the 256mmx256mm build plate of a Bambulab printer.

The bins in this collection are split in half so you can combine them to bins larger than the print plate. The largest possible is 11x6 Gridfinity units or 462mm x 252mm or 18.2"x10"! You simply have to combine two bins of the same height and width.

 

The bins are designed to be as compatible with any Gridfinity system as possible. They have space for magnets or screws and a flat bottom on the inside for clean and easy storage. The default print profile doesn’t require brims for adhesion.

Usage is pretty simple: Select the build plate with the bin size you want from the overview and send it to the printer. Ideal for beginners or a quick print job from the mobile app.

The default height of Gridfinity bins is 6HE
This creates bins that are 46mm high with an inner depth of 39mm (34mm if you want to stack them).
Be aware that the base grid also adds another 2-5mm - depending on the grid style.
Stacked bins are ~5mm shorter in total than the single bins

The size of the bins is in the 42mm grid of Gridfinity. Meaning all bins outside dimensions are a multiple of 42mm
For the inside dimension you have to deduct 2mm per side.
For example a 1x1 bin has 38mm x 38mm capacity, a 3x6 bin has 122mm x 248mm.

 

Other collections with different heights from 2HE to 12HE are also available as different print profiles:

 

UnitsOutsideInsideStckable
2HE18mm11mm6mm
3HE25mm18mm13mm
4HE32mm25mm20mm
5HE39mm32mm27mm
6HE46mm39mm34mm
8HE60mm53mm48mm
10HE74mm67mm62mm
12HE88mm81mm77mm


The formula for the height is:
Outside: HE x 7mm + 4mm
Inside: HE x 7mm – 3mm
Stackable: HE x 7mm – 8mm

Total height of stacked is 5mm less than the individual heights.

 


Other Gridfinity collections:

I have created collection models with special alignment for easy and quick printing fully compatible with Gridfinity.
Alternitively there is the Gridfinity Simple Base Grid - all Sizes
There is the Gridfinity Simple Bin - all sizes
There is also the Gridfinity Eco Bin - all sizes for ~ 40% filament and print time saving.

Also there is the Gridfinity Label Bin - all sizes
Lastely tere are the Gridfinity Lids / Blanks - all sizes

The Gridfinity project:

The Gridfinity system is a smart and flexible way to organize your space. Using a 42mm grid-based design, it lets you arrange different-sized bins and trays to store items neatly and efficiently. Whether it's for tools, office supplies, or household items, Gridfinity helps reduce clutter and keeps everything in its place. It's easy to customize and expand, so you can adjust it to fit your changing needs, making it a great solution for keeping any space tidy and organized. Gridfinity has a significant part in my decision to get a 3D printer.

 

Gridfintity was originally designed by Zack Freeman as an open source and free storage solution:

FreeCAD:
I created all the 3d files here myself with the free (LGPL) Gridfinity workbench for FreeCAD by Stu142
https://github.com/Stu142/FreeCAD-Gridfinity-Workbench


I can highly recommend this tool for generating bins that are tailor made for your application. The possible combinations of Gridfinity are nearly endless. After you have all your basic bins this is a great tool


Disclaimers:
I did neither invent Gridfinity nor parts of it, nor do I claim any ownership of this project.
I just created all the bins in this collection, and many other collections to ensure the same parameters are used and organized them in an easy to manage and print manner. I created this collection to make it easy for myself and others to quickly send a bin request to a printer. It has proven practical for me to quickly request missing bins without having to browse through huge archive folders.
If you think I somehow still stole the fame of Gridfinity I want to quote Zack freeman himself (video at 6:25): “It is a framework for the community…”

Other Notes:
The split bins end with half a grid unit. This means you always have to combine two bins to make a full bin. Since it is split in the midle of the grid, the supporting grid and the includes lashed hold it together quite OK. But for best results i reccomend to glue it at the bottom and the latches with a small drop of superglue each.
