Based on Gridfinity | The modular, open-source grid storage system, by Zack Freedman's. As it is an open design I belive it shall be possible to use only open tools for its development. Check the gridfinity official especification to know more about the design. My implementation may not be strictly compliant with it, so be careful integrating it with your own or 3rd party designs, they may not work.
All models are parametrizable through the user_input variable set.
The parameters variable sanitzes the user_input values
It defines all design parameters.
If the the parameters variable is changed it may be possible the design is broken.
Some manual adjustment may be reqruied.
Not all files have the same parameters.
One goal of this project is that all models can be easily configured for your own needs.
I do not seek to have a fully parametrizable project.
But one that is flexible enough to adapt up to certain level.
It use half size as default unit. The baseplate unit size is divided by two. And reduce all other measuremets equally. This means the container is 20.5 mm in size. The height unit is not affected
| parameter | value |
|---|---|
| base plate width | 21 mm |
| base plate outer radius | 4 mm |
| container width | 20.5 mm |
| container outher radius | 3.75 mm |
| unit height | 7 mm |
All model are within the mec directory. Each folder has a base file with the basic designs. Each custom design is placed in a different file. The miscellaneous directory has gridfinity compatible desgins that are neither baseplates or containers.
I decided to go with FreeCAD as I like it and it is pretty easy to use if you are familiar with other 3D parametric software. Unlike OpenScad or other gridfinity generators the main target of this project is to have 3d models of the designs. Although I apprecieate the work of the generators and those projects based on OpenScad, for me they feel like coding. If I am doing 3d modeling, I do not want to write code.
