Great video! I've worked with similar foam fro other hobby-jobs. I'd highly recommend to use compressed fiberboard (sometimes called hobby boards) for the bottom piece you used/glued @11:55. Provides a better surface for the glue to adhere & a stiffer base for use.
dude nice, just use the cut out foam, cut that in half, insert it, then your tools are fine, also, I would recommend, using more dense foam next time, like the wall foam used on bathrooms, before you put up tiles. or the foam for model building. this you bought there are for sensitive items, imo and not tools. I see 5 others said the same about the cut out foam, so thats bang on.
Hey Jet. I did the same for my toolbox, as you did in your truck toolbox. Take the foam cutouts you removed, cut their thickness down, and put them back in their cutout spots under the pliers and tools. That lifts the tools up higher and makes the rattle non-existent. 👍🏼
You're really creative! 3D printing and laser cutting transform the toolbox into something that is both functional and beautiful. I don't have a laser cutter, only a FLSUN S1, I'm going to learn from you, design my garage as well, I don't know if I can achieve this effect like yours, and hopefully make the garage a little cooler.
I Like that you tried to utilize different solutions for different things. I think we all wish we had every drawer gridfinity, but its not always economical or the best option. Those vertical socket rails from amazon or the hardware store work great. I also like that you show that your results aren't always perfect. the same as most of us run into on projects like this. add finger holes in your foam tool control mats for easy acessibility! keep up the great videos!
The thin bases work great in a metal toolbox. The magnets on the bin stick to the metal so you don't need that base with the magnets. The magnetic bases work great in wood drawers
would love to see some more automotive + 3d printing content. Great video, keep it up. PS: no need to put yourself down with those captions nobody is perfect 😉
I don't use sockets, but if i had as many as you, it would been a nightmare to always look at which number to put it on. So here is an idea. You know those bolts storage prints where you just drop the bolt and it starts sliding down and depending on it size it falls through a hole and then in the right bin. I think something similar can be designed for these sockets and it will be so cool to just drop the socket in a slide and it will find the right position on its own.
My main gripe with gridfinity is how much space it takes up. If you were to print for example all your ratchet holders and put magnets on the bottom, you could change the design to be much slimmer and fit like 3x as many ratchets in that drawer.
This is the main reason I bought a 3D printer. I don't want to spend 12K on a bigger toolbox at work, but trying to cram more stuff in without various holders and organizers makes that a pain in the butt.
Great video!

Custom organization is one of the main reasons I got into 3d printing. Great job with everything!
Thank you and I agree!
I immediately paused the video and printed that socketfinity rack for my socket adapters. That thing is genius. Thanks for another great video!
Thanks for checking it out!

wow you are a genius!
I would recommend storing the respective ratchet with its sockets. You shouldn’t need to go in different drawers to get the 3/8 drive tools.
that's actually a phenomenal idea
Enjoying your videos from Belarus. Got some very useful experience. Thank you and please keep it going
Wow thanks for watching :)

definitely a great idea to add finger holes, glad you liked the video!
cut the foam cutouts in half and put them back in the hole to make them less deep.
You stole my words lol
Definitely gonna do this
Would be super helpful for you to say what filament youbuse and why. Great ideas and my 'dumpstyle' toolbox is jealous!
i used a combination of sunlu abs and pla because i’m not sure if pla will warp in the summer heat. it’s a little experiment i’m doing
@jet_lea oh thanks for saying! Didn't know the a1 could do abs👍
unfortunately i printed the abs components on a p1s, I don’t want to mislead anyone
@jet_lea oh oops my mistake! I assumed there. You earned my sub👍

Interesting tip! I’ll have to give that a try!

Really enjoy your videos

now THAT is a good idea
I was on the fence about buying the laser engraver but now I will get it!
I've found a ton of uses for it!

definitely a good point
2:40 had me dying

gridfinity definitely helps although you don’t be able to hold as much
3:15 what happend there?
bro i freaking love your vids, but u should go easy on yourself💚
Thanks! I try my best!
