About this design

The Gridfinity Starter Kit is a complete Gridfinity starter you print yourself: everything you need to organise one desk drawer, kitchen drawer or tool drawer. Gridfinity is an open, modular system on a 42 mm grid. Bins drop into a baseplate and stay put, and they stack.

This kit is compatible with Gridfinity: modelled from scratch to the open specification, so the bins also fit baseplates from other Gridfinity designs and vice versa. The standard itself is covered by the MIT license (Zachary Freedman and Voidstar Lab LLC); the license text is included in the download. LayerKit is not an official Gridfinity partner.

  • Baseplates: 4x4 (168 × 168 mm), a light 4x4 with open cells and 2x2 (84 × 84 mm)
  • Eight bins: 1x1, 1x2, 2x2 and 2x3, each 3 and 6 units tall (21 and 42 mm)
  • Two scoop bins (1x2 and 2x2) and four dividers that slide into grooves
  • Every bin has a stacking lip and an angled label shelf, 1.6 mm walls
  • 17 parts, no supports, digitally checked for printability

Print tips: 0.2 mm layers, 3 walls, 15% infill. Print baseplates and bins flat on their bottom. The 4x4 baseplate is 168 mm wide and fits a 180 mm bed; in PLA it can curl, so use a brim or the light variant. Avoid an over-squished first layer: elephant's foot makes bins sit less deep in the baseplate.

You get every part as a separate STL, one 3MF with everything, and the license file of the standard.

Designer's tip

Print baseplates and bins flat on their bottom, dividers flat. A 4x4 baseplate (168 mm) can curl with PLA: use a brim or the light variant with open cells. Avoid an over-squished first layer (elephant's foot), or bins sit less deep in the baseplate. Works together with bins and baseplates from other Gridfinity designs. Compatible with Gridfinity, MIT license of the standard (Zachary Freedman and Voidstar Lab LLC).

Frequently asked questions

What is Gridfinity?

An open, modular storage system on a 42 mm grid, created by Zack Freedman. Bins drop into a baseplate and stack. Because the dimensions are fixed, parts from different designers fit together.

Do these bins fit baseplates from other Gridfinity designs?

Yes. The kit is modelled from scratch to the open Gridfinity specification, with 0.25 mm clearance per side, so bins and baseplates are interchangeable with other Gridfinity-compatible designs.

Can I sell printed bins?

The Gridfinity standard is covered by the MIT license. These LayerKit files are covered by our own license: printing for yourself and selling printed copies in small runs is allowed, sharing or reselling the files is not.

Will a 4x4 baseplate fit my printer?

The 4x4 baseplate is 168 × 168 mm, so a 180 × 180 mm bed is enough. On a smaller bed, use several 2x2 baseplates side by side.

My bins do not sit properly in the baseplate. What now?

Your first layer is probably over-squished (elephant's foot). Raise the first layer slightly or use your slicer's elephant foot compensation.
