Gridfinity: Your Ultimate Modular Workshop is FREE!

1.8M views · 4 years ago · explainer · evergreen

Zack Freedman introduces Gridfinity, a free, open, 3D-printable modular storage system built on a standard grid. Bins and baseplates fit together for everything from screws to tools.

HN treats it as the introduction to Gridfinity from its creator, and the answer to how to organize small parts.

“Watching Zack's original video on the concept really helps to cement why this exists.”

For the unfamiliar, gridfinity is a project kicked off by Zack Freedman, who makes awesome YouTube videos with his life partner: ▶ this video (Yes, that is a monocular HUD on his face, it's his teleprompter. There are a bunch of videos on the channel chronicling the various iterations of it)

Cool! I was hoping someone would make a better catalog for these. Searching thangs for specific things got really murky. I made a ton of the 2 grid 3 bay windowed bins to hold M3 and M4 screws and nuts and small but numerous lego pieces. Watching Zack's original video on the concept really helps to cement why this exists. ▶ this video

I about had a stroke when I got to 11m54s in ▶ this video ; I think this is the correct transcription of that sentence: > I did a whole episode on how more printers' printers print prints for printers' printers than printers print prints for printed projects
