Can we take it the other way, can Gridfinity support *this?* I can't imagine integrating this into a gridfinity base would be hard... Simply build the box with the basic Gridfintity unit measurements in mind, build a Gridfinity basic box that fits, then boolean the two STLs together. Sure, you're losing (AFAIK) the ability to easily modify the design after... but if you do the design work right before you've got the final product design. And as long as you tolerance the parts, you could probably cut a Gridfinity base to accept the "slide in" bento divider...

Not sure how to contact the designer, but a nice addition would be to add fillets in the bottom of each section to make it easier to get small parts out.

What's up with the white balance? Joel looks green.

Forget the metal hardware. Just take a scrap piece of filament (we all end up with 5-10in of unused stuff from a spool), slide it through the holes, clip to length, and tack in place with a dot of your favorite glue. I did this for my sunglasses case and its been going strong for four years.

If you size the hinge hole properly you can skip the glue. Pet peeve: designing ANYTHING for 3d printing that requires glue.

I remembered a design I saw before immediately that used a section of filament, and then you just melted the ends and flattened them, it will bind to both sides, but as long as both sides are for the lid or for the box, and not one on each, it should still rotate freely

This is a great tool. I am printing the first storage box now. Thank you for the heads ups and review.

Very, very cool! Thanks for sharing!

One of the most useful videos I've seen in awhile.

This is a great tool! Our kitchen drawers just do not fit any pre-made utensil organizers properly so we've had to use the best we can find. This tool can generate a model that actually fits and is functional. Thank you for the video! :)

This format is amazing. This will make it easier to do my silverware drawer. My house is older and the drawers are smaller then normal, but with this program, I can adjust it easily to for. Thank you for sharing this.

Looking forward to checking this out!

Cant wait to use this tool, thanks!

Thanks Joel, I think I'll try this out.

omg this is amazing. Years ago i was going to model out storage trays for my couch storage that's just a big hole. I started and got distracted as one does and forgot about it. This will make this project take minutes vs hours of modeling.

So Cool - Thanks for sharing!

you can also go bigger than the sliders let you, when you are on the grid maker tab, you can input your own measurements.

Awesome & useful site !! Thanks for posting !

Thank you so much! I wish I would have had this about 3 weeks ago, but now will work too.

I havent gotten my printer just yet, and lately I have been EXTREMELY obsessed with designing and searching stuff. KZread's algorithm is now teasing the hell out of me LOL. So yeah, this popped up, and needless to say bookmarked this for later and you, sir, have a new subscriber :)

You can make boxes of any size depth and width (not height), since you can adjust the sizes in the Grid section by clicking on the numbers on the left side and above the columns and changing them as you need. You can also change the wall width in the settings.

This is incredible! Designing storage for parts can really suck, so having something that saves maybe 99% of the time and ends up with perhaps a better result is awesome. Something you didn't really touch on is stackability. It'll take some more work, but you could potentially create several identically sized trays with different layouts, and then make a box with the same width and depth but taller.

Thank you for sharing this clever app. I really do look forwards to monkeying around with it. The amount of time that will be saved on a drill bit, tap, reamer, etc, (metric and imperial sizes) organizer just got better.. I have been wanting to build these organizing bins/ pull drawers/ cabinets for a long time, and although I find CAD relaxing, sitting long times wrecks my back, and why I have dreaded designing them. When considering drill bits, I have fractional sizes, up to 1-1/2" diameter, in 1/64" increments, there is like 120 slots/bins... Also, there is "number" sized drill bits, and like 60 or so of those, and "letter" drill bits, and 26 of those. Never mind, each of those categories, I have several sets, that each serve different purposes, cutting steels, cutting plastics, sheet metal, cutting hardened steels, wood, concrete (just a basic set for concrete). Then, taps, name the sizes for machine threads, metric and imperial, under size taps, over size taps, special taps, for odd thread if foreign countries from vintage times, pipe taps, acme taps, square thread taps, and of course, most of those have the mate in the form of threading dies. Then the horrifying complexity of the reamers, of all the categories of those machine threads, and the on-size reamers, under sized and over sized, and special tapered reamers, and there is a few additional categories for reamers of purpose titles, like hand taps, machine shank taps, spiral flute, straight flute design, and on and on and on... An absolute nightmare of organizing such a complex set of cutting tools, while having the desire to keep them protected from each other of hard alloyed steels (H.S.S. & carbide) banging cutting edges against other cutting edges, not ideal when that happens, minor bumps the steel can tolerate such, but, if you can avoid it, why not avoid it. It is still gonna be allot of time printing these cases, no question of that at all but, I got all year, at my leisure to do so, and will enjoy doing it. This app is a game changer for my mission. Pardon the novel, I am just excited about this. As all day to day, I haven't felt physically well, but, perhaps, this brightened my night. Thank you.

I saw this on CHEP the other day, but Chuck while definitely promoting how useful this is for quick prototyping also kinda woefully undersold the utility of _having_ an app, free or low-cost, that does exactly this so conveniently versus pre-existing workflows of opening 3D modeling software just to make boxes.

Ohhhh. I like this. I like this a lot.

Orca slicer also finds non-manifolded edges in the STL files and will fix them for you as well. I fix them and then re-save the corrected STL models for later use.

Have a small cardboard box (about 1/2" tall) in a drawer in my toolbox where I keep the tiny (jeweler) screwdrivers etc so they don't roll around and get lost. This will make a great sub for that! And can add little walls now to further divide things.

I had a play with this and it's really fun. All I wish for is to be able to merge cells and it would be exceptional. (Sometimes things don't fit into rectangles efficiently - vernier calipers, for example.)

Neat, and tidy!

That's a cool webtool. I will surely try some boxes. Would be awesome if you could design more versatile inserts for specific carrying cases.

i think to sorta supports bigger than the 200x250x250 if you just change the dimension on the grid section rather than the size section

This is excellent! I would like to see it go to 400x400 at least. I love the idea of making sections for my toolbox

Thank you for the tip ! Regarding the XL cases, it's not a big deal to rescale a small box to design a larger one ;-)

I want the clamps!! /s Great video

To label the boxes if you are using PrusaSlicer or its derivatives, add text and/or SVG logos in the slicer to the top of those boxes. You'll probably want to print in the orientation Joel used so you can do a layer height filament swap if you want the text/logo to have a contrasting color to the rest of the lid.

trying this out to make sized dividers for my printed tacklebox

This is really quite good. 3 things... 1. hinges need re-designing so the lid can be printed flat with minimal support. 2. would be nice to print the box so it included the dividers, no need to print separate divider tray. 3. Be able to adjust the box wall thickness. All these can be easily tweaked in Bambu slicer... but it would be nice not to have to.

I want this to export a SVG of the separated box section. That would be a great file for laser cutting and CNC. Ive been wanting to make a nightstand organizer and desk organizer from wood like this but havent been able to design something nice enough. This nailed it. It just doesnt export svg.

They need one of those apps for board game inserts. Might have to try using this one for some of that.

its very awsome. I do hope it doesnt get overloaded and shuts down.

That’s cool AF

you can also go in the settings in the top right and change the wall thickness

chuck shared it!

this is. awesome

Thanks, Joel; fills the bill for many projects. Just wish I could organize myself better, heh heh heh ......

Saw this and thought this would be perfect for creating travel cases for your game minis. Dice tray in the center, dice holders on either side and character holders on the far side. If you make the box measure it and make panels for a dice tower to add to it and depending on the size of the box and tower you can make an insert spot for notes, custom character sheet, resources tracker, ECT. I know it's not a new Idea but it definitely gets you there faster and you can make your own storage system for the various trays if you are one of those super nerds that has specific dice for each character you play. (Don't judge me.) This also makes me wonder if the program can make a lip for the tray to sit on allowing for space in the box under the tray

That'd be a great tool for board/card gaming components

What a great find this is. Although every box that I try to print creates a solid block not box. Any ideas? The lid, latch and insert prints great.

Hello, thanks for sharing, this is a very cool and useful app. I have tried it and designed the same organizer box with the same dimensions. When I used the Creality Slicer, it estimated the printing time (without the outer box and the lid) to be more than 11 hours. Is this really the time it takes to print such organizers ? Please I would be glad to get some advice. Thanks a lot, appreciate your help.

@3DPrintingNerd

12 күн бұрын

11 hours seems like a lot. Is it trying to print it as a solid object?

What about the verde pack lol. This is pretty sweet, I usually do this for all my organizers in fusion 360 custom. This will save some time, thank you so much for sharing!!

It would be great if you could select different styles of the external box. I'm used to the original, simple Ultimate Box Generator for SCAD which has options for a lid. This looks MUCH easier a a lot easier for creating more complex boxes.

Fire Sauce, Best Sauce!!

I wonder if there is any chance this could have gridfinity connections added to the bottom?

If using Creality print 5, use the hollow command to fix the box.

Oh, and it will be great for making short little bins for milling machine bits as well. Can use a sharpie to write the size in the bottom of the bin I'm thinking.

@Sembazuru

If you are using PrusaSlicer or one of its derivatives, you can add the text for the sizes in the slicer and do a layer height filament swap (if you don't have an MMU, AMS, or other multi color automation) to have the text in a different color. Granted, you will end up with the bottom and sides different colors with a single filament swap, or a racing stripe of the text color with two filament swaps.

This would be great for creating board game organiser inserts.

I used a similar app to make a holder for my 5 tv remotes plus reading glasses.

This is great anyone know of any other sites like this?

But how do i actually get started and what printer should I get and filament, etc.

So you printed Prusa filament on your Prusha printer?

You could create a box at the max dimensions and scale up in the slicer to fit the giga!

Is there an option for changing the latch to use a pad lock instead?

Instead of printing, I'd CNC route out some solid wood and it could be quite a bit larger too, and quicker to finish to boot. I was thinking of making an organizer for E12 through hole resistors one tray per decade stackable. I have something in tempex that it came in decades ago but it's crumbling.

Have yet to make one that didn't need repaired before printing.

Anybody know what material would be best to 3d print sockets for driving bolts/nuts?

It would be great if it had a gridfinity option. There are some gridfinity bin generators but I haven't seen any like this one yet.

I tried this too but the box stl doesn't show properly (on the webpage and after downloading). The hinge brackets are not connected to the box but sitting on top of it. Tried to lower them in Prusaslicer but that didnt work because they are snapped to the box. I could split them to objects but then they are snapped to the build plate and could not move them up. Tried to make this box several times now on the website (thought it was maybe a little snag) but it keeps doing this. It was a smaller box that i wanted to make, maybe thats why. If i make a bigger one on the website it looks okay. But that's not what i wanted ofc.

I too love fire sauce, and have a big jar full of them that could be replaced with a better organizational tool like this lol

My tool box is getting an overhaul. 🤣🤣❤️👍

What would be really cool would be if you built is from the inserts out. Currently each column is the evenly split. However, I do use Fusion 360, so I should just stop being lazy and go design the stuff I need.

Is there a version of this for gridfinity ?

This would be lacking for organizing your silverware drawer as, in my case, I needed to vary the length of the cells as one row would hold spoons where there are 8 small shorter spoons and 8 longer spoons. Dividing them evenly in the middle would leave one compartment oversized for the small spoons and undersized for the large spoons. For quick organizational dividers for evenly sized objects would be great though. For my silverware organization, with a little knowledge with Fusion360, it took me 15 minutes to lay out an organizer that fit everything perfectly.

Great video. I'm in the UK but for some reason the link to Bento does not allow the site to open. I have tried in a windows laptop, imac, android tablets all with different browsers but to no avail.

I had zero issue with printing all of this, except the LID. I can't get it to print correctly, and I don't know why. Help!

Fantastic video Joel! Another banger! 👏 It's fun seeing the haters in the comments section projecting their insecurities onto you and your ever so funny responses! 🍿 #GoodTimes

Very nice, but the limited size is a real bummer. I make 390x390 inserts manually, and this tool would force me to HALF the thickness, then double to size after creation

Thick line vase mode boxes are a better option, more efficient.
