Gridfinity is the popular Modular Storage System invented by Zack Freedman. This is a remix of his Divider Bins. Unfortunately his design includes a deep cavity/overhang that obscures small parts such as filament spool clips or @Neel's snap connectors for Gridfinity base plates.

Here, I remixed the 1x1 Bin for small parts by extruding the wall out to the extents of the label. This allows you to look straight down at a bin and know for sure if it is empty or not. I found that 4U provides enough depth to hold most small things.

The goal of this remix was not to maximize the internal storage space, but to provide quick access to a small number of parts. As you can see below, the wasted space is… quite large.

I need something quick-n-dirty to bootstrap my storage for my newborn 3D printer until I learn more CAD tools to make bespoke molded cradles. I plan to revisit this design, optimize it, and parameterize it.
