Description
This is a from-the-ground-up reimplementation of Zack Freedman's divided Gridfinity boxes using CadQuery instead of Fusion 360. See this video for further information about the project: This version is customizable in CadQuery so you can generate custom sized divided boxes, including ridiculously large ones like 10x10 boxes etc. I have included a random selection of grid sizes from 1x1x2-high up. These should be fully compatible with the official boxes/grids. You can also fully customize the X Y and Z unit sizes AND the number of dividers on X and Y separately! #adjust these three variables to change the grid size x_grid_number = 2 #CHANGEME! 1+ number of x units of gridfinity size y_grid_number = 3 #CHANGEME! 1+ number of y units of gridfinity size unit_height = 6 #CHANGME! 2+ number of units -- unitless in integer #adjust these variables to change the number of divider walls x_divider_number = 1 #CHANGEME! 0+ number of divider walls y_divider_number = 7 #CHANGEME! disable_mholes = False #disable magnet/bolt holes in container I re-implemented this because it seems like a perfect fit for an open source CAD software like CadQuery. With that in mind I have also released the source code python script that was used to generate the STLs. I would love for others to help me create new organizer bins and/or re-implement organizer bins in open source CAD software like CadQuery or OpenSCAD. I used CadQuery/CQ-Editor to design this with a recent version checked out from github on April 13th, 2022. Unfortunately CadHub.xyz does not have a recent enough version of CadQuery to render this properly (n.b. the issue is with lack of a combine argument in the older version of the eachpoint method). CQ-Editor is available on github at CadQuery/CQ-editor, but the latest stable release will NOT run the included cadquery source code, so please instead use a static build from here: https://github.com/jdegenstein/jmwright-CQ-Editor/releases/ If you are interested also check out my related model for gridfinity baseplates here: https://www.printables.com/model/170956-basic-gridfinity-baseplates-cadquery-customizable And my related model for undivided gridfinity boxes here: https://www.printables.com/model/174715-basic-undivided-gridfinity-boxes-cadquery-customiz REVISION HISTORY: 220427: Revision #1 Fixed issue where the bottom thickness of the box was only 1.0mm above the top of the magnet/bolt holes, but was intended to be 2.0mm. Re-rendered all models and released revised python source code.
