Gridfinity: The one System to sort them all

[@ryanmagee718]

Hey man, awesome video. Would really appreciate a full in-depth video of all the steps involved in creating custom bins - sketching, extruding, chamfering, cut-out’s etc. with some tips and tricks too. I think this would be helpful to a whole lot of people who have either just discovered 3d printing or gridfinity, or both.

[@therronhumphrey]

Ive yet to find a video that covers this for people new to Fusion.

[@Krochmalllo]

Same here

[@ThumbnailGrail]

Anyone find one yet? Looking now...

[@therronhumphrey]

@@ThumbnailGrail what I ended up doing is looking into the free course here in YT he talks about. After the first few lessons I knew enough to design my own stuff.

[@MattManuel]

Amazing editing. You jump around but it all feels continuous and the audio levels all match. Well done.

[@Arne.Bornheim]

Thanks so much! Do you think it’s too much jumping around? Have been thinking about doing it slightly less for future videos!

[@MarkThomas123]

@@Arne.Bornheim No.. You covered a lot of ground, all well covered. No, it is a good style of video. You can do detailed videos on each subtopic if you wish and put them in the links for more details, but, Concept videos or Summary videos are great. Especially if there is more info on the site about what you are covering.. I am fixing to look and see what else you have. I am interested in 3D printing and have not purchased yet.. I noted how to use Fusion 360 and Gridfinity Generator, camera, grid map to take a photo and import it and make a bin off of that.. That is actually what I am looking for. Is there a more detailed video on how to create something unique... Want to know where to start when I get the printer and have some experience printing the base grids, and boxes to organize some small parts drawers. I'm sure I will be wanting to do other things during the day and maybe start larger prints at night before I go to bed if all works out well.. Something I have done several time and know works well.

[@wolfreicherter748]

@@Arne.Bornheim looks cool, its well done, BUT, if you d ask me, I d say you can tone it down. I cant see any structure behind it, in a Video about a System... they all look cool, but does it help your story telling / Information flow? a bit less, I dare say. Nevertheless, smashing video about the system. Thank you

[@jonahdent9245]

Great vid. I found Gridfinity a couple weeks ago and i cant stop printing. It fits almost perfect into my Ikea Alex drawers 7x12 grid with a 20mm spacer at the back. takes so long to print things on my ender3 v3 se but toatly worth it

[@Arne.Bornheim]

nice! happy you love it too! and good to know it fits into ikea well because so many people have it!

[@Dalroth]

I definitely think you need a balance of custom and generic bins. I went crazy and printed a bunch of custom bins that now live in my failed prints box. The generic bins turned out to be far more useful in practice. That said, certain things that I use often and are very fiddly definitely benefited from a custom bin (e.g. my soldering iron and my calipers).

[@Arne.Bornheim]

Yeah it‘s definitely the best to have a mix. I definitely love custom bins but you can’t overdo it…

[@ASneakerLife]

any idea where I can find a more in depth tutorial on building custom bins? This wasn't in dept enough and to fast for me to understand what the heck is happening lol

[@Arne.Bornheim]

Hey! sadly i couldn't really find one on KZbin right now. But honestly, if you have some basic knowledge of Fusion, it's pretty easy. For my easy modules I do the following: 1. Create a solid Gridfinity bin in the right dimensions with the Plugin 2. create a drawing on the top layer and then either trace from a photo or just draw according to measurements. 3. Just extrude and add some fillets I know it's probably a oversimplified explanation, but I hope it helps a little bit

[@ericvazquez5141]

Hi there! Love your video but dont have a lot of experience wirh Fusion 360. How do i experiment and use the Gridfinity Add on?

[@Arne.Bornheim]

The making Gridfinity parts ist not too hard, once you get a basic concept of Fusion 360. I can really recommend the free learn fusion 360 in 30 Days from product design online kzbin.info/www/bejne/mmTUeIRoqtmfaKM&pp=ygURZnVzaW9uIGluIDMwIGRheXM%3D

[@ententeak]

Great video, but i'm missing one very important thing: Links to models (Baseplates, Basic bins, OpenScad file, F360 plugin, etc...) - Not that i'm not able to find them, but since you've showed it, it would be nice to have direct links for others, that can struggle with finding things ;)

[@Basement_CNC]

just go on printables and search gridfinity, come on its not that hard

[@Arne.Bornheim]

Thanks so much! And you're right: I forgot the links... Will fix asap 😊

[@leonardostreit3527]

Amazing efforts on this project, I saw you video about how to automate print this stuff. I would enjoy some kind o tutorial or course in that.

[@Bastelsaal]

Nice video. We are also about to switch some of our storage solutions to gridfinity...

[@Arne.Bornheim]

haha nice and have fun with your Gridfinity journey!

[@LYNKYI]

I love your videos, i don’t know how you don’t have around 10 million subscribers!

[@Arne.Bornheim]

thank you 😊 ! I think we're getting there (very slowly 😃)

[@FredSchmitthammer]

Do you have your created parts available? I love this system and need somewhere to put my deburring tool and blades!

[@EmilioAyala]

where did you get those large grey bins from?

[@Arne.Bornheim]

It’s called a eurobox (not sure if that’s only a European thing or if those things are available worldwide)

[@Marcus_Caius]

Hello, first time viewer here. I like your style and also the fact that you do NOT try to be funny. Too many Ytuber are trying and it's frankly annoying. That being said, I'd like to know your opinion on Multigrid if you ever consider. Thanks for sharing with all of us

[@Arne.Bornheim]

Happy to have you here 😊 Haha I hope I'm at least a bit funny :/ Sorry, do you mean multiboard (for walls) or mutligrid? Honestly I think it's all personal preference 😊 For the with Gridfinity it was the sheer amount of user modules that was the game changer...

[@Marcus_Caius]

@@Arne.Bornheim Yes I mean Multiboard, sorry. When I said you do not try to be funny, I really meant you were funny :)

[@ImkevanWijngaarden]

Thank you, this was super helpful to me.

[@Arne.Bornheim]

Happy you liked it ! 😊

[@babamatt3o670]

how do I make such timelapse on my printer?

[@Arne.Bornheim]

I actually made a full video on my channel about this 😊 you should check it out!

[@Unkown-go8ft]

not much of a tuturial section for making custom bins tho is it

[@Arne.Bornheim]

It's more broad strokes than an in-depth tutorial.... Can I help you with any step in specific?

[@Unkown-go8ft]

@ yes all of it very new to making customs and learning fusion from scratch lol got any plans to do a full tutorial step by step style to making customs bins

[@ThisisDD]

Lower your infill settings. Some of those are way dense. Probably a factor in your filament use complaint

[@Arne.Bornheim]

What settings and infill pattern are you using? I usually use 10% I have tried less but ended up having problems. It was with a bad filament so I might have learned the wrong lesson that I can’t go lower…

[@ThisisDD]

@@Arne.Bornheim largely depends on what you're printing. I like to use the newer "Support Cubic" they added recently to Orca. It's pretty neat. I usually go with 5-10% unless the model needs extra rigidity. Even then it's usually better to increase the wall loops instead at that point

[@marcel2258]

Using 20% lightning infill is absolutely enough

[@georgeyoung2684]

@@marcel2258I even go as low as 10% lightning and it seems to be working fine so far

Zack is the creator, Alexander Chappels Assortment System was the original one. zack even credits him

[@berblinger]

Nice Video

[@Arne.Bornheim]

Thanks so much 😊 !

[@SarloCreative]

i think gridfinity is not the answer for the grey bins you have. and if you need to replace the gridfinity bins time to time you colud have replace grey bins too

[@Arne.Bornheim]

true! the grey bins were more meant to show a way of sorting things that went really wrong because stuff was just always thrown on top and the system didnt really change with the use

[@HIGHelgg]

great vid, hope some brand find you and you are able to live from yt

[@Arne.Bornheim]

Thanks :) working on it!

[@DavydAtkins]

It's so disappointing to see Zack Freedman getting all the credit when all he did was take a system by Alexandre Chappel kzbin.info/www/bejne/eXmpfGipjp2Hpac. All Zack did was make a free, parametric version.

[@fogfestival]

he specifically gives credit and mentions Alexandre. And you really thing Alexandre was the first to come up with this?

[@DavydAtkins]

@@fogfestival I watched the video and didn't see Alexandre get mentioned, just Zack And no, I don't think Alexandre was the first. But Zack made a point of how he took Alexandre's idea and just made it free and parametric and now he's the one getting all the credit which seems wrong to me.

[@Arne.Bornheim]

Hi David, thanks for your feedback! I understand what you mean. For me, gridfinity is the best because of all the community modules. The base system with bins is nice but nothing too special. Totally agree that Alexandre made something fairly similar as the base version of gridfinity though. (and I think @fogfestival meant that Zack mentioned alexandre in his video, not me 😊 )

[@DavydAtkins]

@@Arne.Bornheim "Totally agree that Alexandre made something fairly similar as the base version of gridfinity though" Zack explicitly says he took the design from Alexandre in his first video. Also, it's Davyd, not David

[@wojtek-33]

Versions of Alexandre's bins have been around since before Alexandre was born. It is called iterating. Zack gets the credit he deserves for making his version.

[@jtreg]

'mad' is not appropriate and I think is quite offensive. Zack Freedman is a high functioning polymath with ADHD. I also have ADHD; if someone called me mad I would certainly challenge them. I think it is sloppy thinking and misleading so, by brushing off your stupid comment by saying 'I hope that's okay to say...', this is not acceptable, given that you are jumping on the coat-tails of his ideas. It's great that you appreciate the benefits of this ingenious system but please be more careful in how you refer to people who are not 'mad' (or ill), but occupy a niche in society that often provides others with imaginative ideas, prepared to take risks and contrast to the other 96% of the population.

[@Arne.Bornheim]

thanks for your input. I think there's a difference between calling someone a "mad scientist" and calling someone mad. He gives of that vibe of someone whacky and creative. It was meant more as a compliment that anything else. This was never about Zack personally, since I respect him a lot.

[@jtreg]

@@Arne.Bornheim it still does not get away from the fact that you make it sound flippant. Perhaps you do respect the man but ultimately to make light of his condition proves you do not understand how people with ADHD suffer. I just wish you would be more mature in your approach. Thank you for your reply.

[@Jo2936]

So you are producing one purpose bin’s out of plastics? Not very thoughtful.

[@Thomllama]

Just saw this, please note, “gridfinity” is a rip off.. he didn’t “design” it, he copied it because he was too cheap to pay a few bucks to Alex.
