I created these bins to fit in the Gridfinity system and hold my double pointed knitting needles. These are based off empty bins with labels. 

 

My needles are ~8 inches long, so I cut out under the label to make sure there would be room for them. I used supports under the labels. The hollow spaces for the needles are all 0.1mm larger than the needle diameter (i.e. the 6.0mm needles have a 6.1mm divot to sit in). I embossed the needle size into the bottom of each bin, in case I lose the labels.

 

I wanted to be space-efficient, so while most bins are 1x5, I made two that are 0.5x5 and two that are 1.5x5. Each of those sets is designed as a pair, so I can still stack bins on top of them when they are paired up. There are also two 2x5 bins, because those needles were too big. 

 

The following sizes of needle are supported:

2.0 mm/US 0

2.25 mm/US 1

2.5 mm/US 1.5 (I have not printed this)

2.75 mm/US 2

3mm/US 2.5 (I have not printed this)

3.25 mm/US 3

3.5 mm/US 4

3.75 mm/US 5

4.0 mm/US 6

4.5 mm/US 7

5.0 mm/US 8

5.5 mm/US 9

6.0 mm/US 10

6.5 mm/US10.5

8.0 mm/US 11

9.0 mm/US 13

10.0 mm/US 15
