I took a 2x5x6 and stacked a 5x5x6 on top, while also merging both bins in order to have a single large bin.

I went to gridfinitygenerator.com and created a 2x5x12 and a 3x5x6 bin, then I used Blender in order to merge both bins to a single 5x5 bin with 2 rows being 12 units tall and the other 3 rows being 6 units tall, because I wanted to make something cool to stack on my existing 3x5x6 bin.
The following text and the name "Bin5x5-R1,2,3-H6-R4,5-H12" has been created using Google's Gemini:
Naming Convention: The "Chemical Logic" for Gridfinity
This project uses a systematic naming convention inspired by IUPAC chemical nomenclature (like 2,3-Bisphosphoglycerate). The filename acts as a precise structural formula for the 3D object.
The Syntax: Base-Row(s)-Height-Row(s)-Height
According to chemical priority rules, we always start numbering from the end that gives the lowest possible numbers (Low Locants) to the features.
Example: Bin5x5-R1,2,3-H6-R4,5-H12
Component | Example | Chemical Equivalent | Meaning |
Base |
| ...glycerate | The core structure (Parent molecule). |
Locants |
| 1,2,3-... | The first set of "addresses" (Rows), starting from 1. |
Substituent |
| ...phospho... | The height property (6 units) at those rows. |
Secondary |
| ...4,5-ethyl... | The remaining rows and their specific height. |
How to read it:
Identify the Base: A standard 5x5 Gridfinity Bin.
Start at the Origin (Row 1): The first three rows (R1, 2, 3) have a height of 6 units (H6).
Continue the Chain: The following two rows (R4, 5) have a height of 12 units (H12).
Why do it this way?
Efficiency: By starting the numbering at the three-row section, we use the sequence 1, 2, 3 instead of 3, 4, 5. In IUPAC rules, lower numbers always take priority.
Orientation: Just as a molecule has a "head" and a "tail" (like the Carboxyl group in Glycerate), Row 1 is defined as the front of the bin.
Clarity: Even without a preview, the name dictates the exact layout: 3 rows of short, 2 rows of tall.
end of AI-text
Using this naming convention would very much facilitate the search for these types of Gridfinity Bins - I call them Gridfinity "Merge-Stack".
Thanks everyone :)
