openGrid USB & SD Card Holder (Support-Free)

I couldn't find a dedicated USB/SD card holder for the openGrid ecosystem that met my needs, so I designed one! This model is a remix-inspired creation, blending the organization of classic desk organizers with the modularity of openGrid.

It features slots for USB-A drives, USB-C devices, and SD/MicroSD cards, keeping your digital tools organized and easily accessible.

Grid Space Requirements:

  • Mounting: The holder itself occupies only 1 openGrid slot.

  • Clearance: Please note that while the base takes up 1 slot, with USB flash drives inserted, it effectively uses 2 slots of vertical space. For comfortable handling and easy removal of the drives, I recommend leaving 3 slots of vertical space.

Key Features:

  • openGrid Compatible: Fits perfectly into the openGrid mounting framework.

  • Versatile Storage: Dedicated slots for various connectors and cards.

  • Support-Free Design: Special geometry allows printing without any support material.

Print Settings & Recommendations:

To achieve a successful print without supports (especially for the initial overhangs), I have used a specific modifier in the provided 3MF/profile:

  • Material: PLA (standard settings).

  • Layer Height Modifier: * Range 0.0 – 0.8 mm: Set to 0.08 mm layer height. This ensures the initial overhangs/angles are captured accurately and print cleanly without support.

    • Rest of the model: Standard layer height (e.g., 0.2 mm).

  • Supports: None needed!
