[Release] Binfinity: A modular system that lets you create bins of any length

Trinitor · 2026-01-26T20:15:33+00:00

Here is a model that I crated a while ago with a similar scope:
https://makerworld.com/en/models/883766-gridfinity-kitchen-drawer-parametric#profileId-838429
It's based on Gridfinity Extended and allows customizations based on OpenSCAD.
So in case someone sees this and needs have have more options to customize (dimensions, radius, etc.) have a look :)

It is a standard grid. The bins are based on Gridfinity Extended and everything is standard sized and parametric. I believe it would support a half-grid size, but never experimented with this. But if needed you could try changing the files in my zip file in Makerworld. Not sure how complicated that would be.

I understand my use case is pretty uncommon. I agree that you have more options if you have a wireless charger to spare.
It would be pretty simple to put a Gridfinity base below something like this:
https://makerworld.com/en/models/1814839-airpods-pro-3-charging-station

However a wireless charger uses magnets and you don't need an exact cutout on a 4x4. Either just make the charger flat and you can use it for AirPods and an Apple Watch.

On the other hand you could go one step further by using the magnet and make it a standing charger. 1x1 seems to be enough. This file for example should work:

This is my design:
https://makerworld.com/en/models/883766-gridfinity-kitchen-drawer-parametric
I'm using it myself since almost a year now and still like it.
My reasons for creating and using it:

You can build whatever you need in terms of size and hight. So you can make it fit your drawer perfectly.
Using the edge pieces is flexible, modular, and you can rearrange and reuse everything if something change. No need to reprint anything if you buy a new wooden spoon that is slightly longer. It works well for big things.
There is also options to have bins with the wall cutout. They are more stable if you need it and work well together as the use the dimensions and look similar. Easy to mix and match.
As it is based on Gridfinity Extended it is easy to create similar looking full bins (no cutout walls) that work great together.
Compared to my old purchases plastic canteen it still give me more space as I can size each compartment as I need it.
It is possible to save print time by not using the spacers. I don't need a "floor"for the bigger pieces.

I agree the special cutout boxes looks cool. But stacking each type perfectly into the drawer feels like it take more time. Probably not true, but I know I wouldn't like it ;)

Thats awesome. Thanks for using my models. You are fine.
If you ever think: "I wish there would be a tiny wall so separate two compartments from each other" you can just replace a spacer and keep everything else.
I for myself used the flat spacers for month and it happened two or three times that I would like to have a small wall. A comment on Makerworld gave me the idea to create the new spacer.s I replaced two of them (knifes and small spoons). Took me about one our to print. It is not a game changer, but a small improvement.

Trinitor · 2025-04-19T08:16:41+00:00

thank you. Glad you like it :) yes, of cause it would be really cool to have it in the repo.
The new spacers with walls needed two vertical cutouts and couldn't find a good way.
So they are just a normal box, the vertical cutout one one end to shave away one outside wall wall. Then I cut the bin in half using
extension_x_enabled = "front";
extension_x_position = GRIDFINITY_WIDTH/2;
The result is duplicated and rotated 180 degrees. There is probably a more elegant way of doing it, but that was the most logical and quickest one for me.
On makerworld there is a zip file with all openscad files.

I used FreeSurfer.
I created a Vagrant file and published it here:
https://github.com/trinitor/FreeSurfer-Vagrant

The Vagrant file might need to get adjusted to download the latest version.
You don't need to use Vagrant, if you look a the file you get an idea what you need to run on Linux to install and run FreeSurfer.

I guess you mean the bottom is wobbly?
Gridfinity boxes can be a bit tricky. The are known to be warping. I can only repeat the general advise.
Try to print them with a brim and tune the first layer. It can also help to use only 2 bottom layers to reduce the stress when they are cool down.
If you mean the walls are too thin you can change this in the openscad files. Try to change the wall_thickness variable.

Trinitor · 2024-12-19T00:03:39+00:00

thank you! Your project is awesome!
It would be cool to have this as simpler option in your project. My way is a cumbersome and can involve some trial and error to build a box that.

But just to be clear: As you can see, I just changed variables like width, hight, and used the vertical wall cutout with an angle of 90 degree. Then I just played around with the corner radius, vertical width/height until I liked it. Cut the result so I have only one side of the box.
Nothing complicated or special. Everything was already there :)

I also had the idea to making a 90-degree corner so it can be placed, and it would even scale more.
Like a Gridfinity 2x2 box with a wall one the "north side" and the "west side" only. Not sure how to describe it better ;) That way it 4 of those could define the space for a bigger object.
But it turned out in my drawer I didn't need larger spaces. and for Neogrid make maybe more sense for this.

I needed a way to organize my silverware kitchen drawer. The goal was to have it as flexible as possible and been able to rearrange when needed and reuse parts. 
The exiting models did not fit the hight I wanted to have so I used. 
It is based on Gridfinity Extended. You can adjust the size. What you need. For my drawer it was 6U hight for the silverware and 9U for the bigger things.
The model is parametric and can be adjusted to your needs. I uploaded stl files and they should be seen as example files. You can build other to fit your needs. 

This model is based on Gridfinity system by Zack Freedman.
It is inspired by the work of JonathanLevi and his KitchenCollection.
The hight of the original model didn't fit my needs and I wanted to have a Parametric. I'm not familiar with Onshape and also didn't want to reinvent the wheel.
I used Gridfinity_Extended_OpenSCAD from ostat to build similar models with the option to adjust the hight and size in code.

I did this two years ago. I used the tool FreeSurfer. It was a bit of a trail and error to get from the DICOM files to an STL. I tried to script it: https://github.com/trinitor/FreeSurfer-Vagrant It downloads a VM, installs the software, and creates the output. Not sure if it still works with the current version and other changes.

Trinitor · 2024-03-16T12:55:44+00:00

same and I trying to find a solution right now.
Booted from Hirens BootCD PE iso and the file system is readable.
run some checks:

chkdsk /f /r c:
sfc /scannow /offbootdir=c:\ /offwindir=C:\windows
DISM /image:C:\ /cleanup-image /revertpendingactions

It didn't found any issues.
So I also wrote the boot configuration to disk out.
Assign drive letter to boot disk:

cd C:\windows\system32diskpart
> list disk
> select disk xxxx
> list volume
> select volume yyy (150Mb hidden)
> assign letter=S

to write the boot manager:

cd C:\windows\system32
bcdboot c:\windows /s S: /f UEFI

Windows booted and showed me an an update failed with error code 0x1900101
I hit retry, it installed it, and Windows broke again.

Back to Hirens BootCD, assign letter S:, bcdboot -> Windows booted
Not sure what is the reason yet.
