Gridfinity 4x5 rugged case - Snapmaker Edition

I really like the parametric Gridfinity Storage box by Pred, but I don't need the stackable design. And I even like  the look of the rugged box by Whity more. So I combined both of them in a 4x5 Gridfinity box. This edition contains two lids with the Snapmaker logo on it. You can choose between a version with logo only and a version with logo and text. It is designed so it can be easily printed with multi material systems.

In addition this is the new design of the box that also allows it to stand on its back.

The box holds 6U high bins and when closed prevents spilling from one bin into another one. It is designed to be sturdy enough but still as slim as possible.

Printing

.stl files are already oriented correctly. For .step you need to check yourself.

You need to print

• 1x bottom

• 1x lid (with logo)

• 1x handle

• 2x latch

• 1x seal (optional - print seal out of TPU)

Print settings

The box is printed best with the following settings:

• 3 Perimeters/Walls

• 5 Bottom/Top layers

• 20% infill

• 0.2mm layer height

• Arachne for wall generation

Multi Material Printing (lid with logo)

When you use the .step files you can simply assign different materials for the logo and the body in the slicer.

When you use the .stl files you need to split the stl to parts first before you can assign different materials for the lid and the logo.

Assembly

For assembly you need

• 6x M3x30mm screws for the hinges and latches

• 2x M3x18mm screws for the handle
