I started playing with this system this past week and am really loving the system, but have to admit that there are SO MANY parts that make it a bit difficult at times to figure out what connector/bin/pop-in, etc. you need for a job. Also, for the bins, I would really love to see some bins with just rails on one side. Currently you have only two options - a simple bin with no multi-point rails on the sides, and a a bin with multi-point rails all around. The bins with the rails all around take a really long time to print! For most of what I'm trying to do, I really just need the rails on one side. Or hey, maybe you can work on a parametric generator that lets you pick which sides you would like the rails one. Just some ideas. On the flip side, the sheer number of parts and options really does allow for endless possibilities once you figure out how everything works... which can take some time!
These are amazing. I've been printing deep into multiboard stuff lately and I love it. The thing I want the most are drawers that can be clipped closed. I know my need is specific, but I want to use it almost like a tackle box and bring it places with me and the stuff inside be safe in transport. Tackleboxes still let little stuff move since it's like "1 lid" Be my hero.
Interesting. It's definitely something we want to investigate more. You can use magnets to help keep everything relatively secure, but it's not quite a "lock". Definitely on our list for future development!
Could you do a short video on the bin connectors? When I take mine off the printers, I try to unfold them and they just end up breaking in half. I'm not sure how you are getting yours to act as a hinge. Even just a RUclips short on it would be super helpful.
We've recently found that the slicer settings have a lot more effect on the folding than expected. If you don't mind, try posting a picture of your sliced files (first layer or so) on the community website and I can help look into the issue! Some materials also just aren't so friendly to the folding sadly.
@@stellasfun Thanks! I tried a different filament and it worked. I had a roll of some PLA Silk that I'll never use for anything and I was using it to test with. Turns out it doesn't like to fold and hinge. I printed with some standard PLA and it folded as expected.
Ya it was quite interesting seeing that pop up while in development. In fact, there have been a few. Check out the announcement post to see all the other great makers who were designing things I was already working on: community.multiboard.io/c/announcements/multipoint-is-here-start-printing-now

Or maybe you can build it and be our hero :D
@@iDreamOfOkra I could build a lesser version for sure
You are a genius!
"So much room for activities!"

Your multipoint looks just like the multiconnect.

It's much smaller than Multiconnect.
I think it’s better anyway
@@timcash6372 why do you think its better?
@@timcash6372 why is that?
is there any multibin with a round buttom to easily grab small parts?
We have inserts with scooped edges at their bottoms, as well as "bowl" style inserts that have a round cavity.
Is there a bin and drawer generator?
Can't seem to find it.
We don't currently have a generator, but it's in the works!
