Zack Freedman’s original Gridfinity Base Plates
https://thangs.com/designer/ZackFreedman/3d-model/Gridfinity%2520Baseplates-60925
Also inspired by https://www.printables.com/model/250550-gridfinity-magnet-light-baseplate
Optimal settings:
- To install 6x2mm magnets, add a Pause in your slicer at the beginning of the layer where the magnet holes start to get covered - see picture below
- Single external perimeter of 0.8mm with 0.4-0.6mm nozzle
- Arachne Perimeter Generator if you have it. Otherwise enable Detect Thin Walls
- Infill: 1% (Infill isn't necessary but Prusa slicer doesn't bridge in some key areas if the infill is zero)
- Prusa Mini: disable the skirt to fit a 4x4 plate
- For edge pieces the protruding snaps can be removed using the cutting tools in your slicer
Each protruding snap has a built in support that needs to be removed after printing
Connecting a tile into a corner will be difficult, so connect tiles together in strings and then connect the strings together
