    Awesome content. My suggestion would be to make the top layer a contrasting color so it’s easier to see if a tool is missing. It’s what we do with foam cut outs in aviation toolbox.

  • @TheTsunamijuan
    @TheTsunamijuan 4 месяца назад +78

    In my experience when designing fits for tool holding. I offset by 2-3mm, (and some draft angle) than I leave some areas for single sided medium density foam pads. That I will stick in in a few spots. This adds some holding and vibration protection for sensitive stuff, and just the right amount of pressure to still be able to retrieve said item. I routinely move my toolboxes around my shop area. Due to a rather limited around of room. Plus said shop was originally a barn.. so the concrete floor has more character and issues than letting a toddler finger paint with drywall compound.

      ​@@Clough42you don't need special support materials. PLA and PetG are a great match. Just make sure it's not some blended stuff. If you have bigger surfaces don't make solid interfaces... I use 0.15mm gaps. That way you don't get tiny gaps or tiny "squishes" from not perfectly tuned flow rates that could allow the next layer to grab on. The resulting surfaces are very close to perfect.

  • @Pyrichia
    @Pyrichia 3 месяца назад +2

    You can get both a highly accurate and tight fit on items /and/ easy removal by using draft angles. Only the very bottom of the holder has to have the accurate fit, while the rest of the depth provides a steeply sloped guide into it.
    Injection molding and sand casting use draft all the time. Since the part ultimately has zero clearance against the mold, parallel walls would have high friction when sliding out, making separation difficult. Drafting those walls provides immediate and increasing clearance as the part is removed, greatly reducing separation forces. The same principle can make your holder both easy to put items in, but satisfyingly tight and rattle-free when seated.

    Thanks for this video. I am not a machinist but since I've watched some of your Fusion 360 designs before, I wanted to see this one. I have organized my desk drawers and my wife's silverware drawer, but that's about it. I did find the Fusion add-in for Gridfinity bases and bins and that helped a lot. I don't even save designs any longer as they are easier to just create, print, and move on the the next one. I only have a Bambu X1 and the biggest base I can print is 5 x 5. I can print some bins up to 5 x 6, but I liked your idea of splitting longer trays for longer objects. I just tried it and it's easy to use the split body command and find the 42mm points to split on. Thanks again. Irv in Florida.

      From my understanding he duplicated the model in his CAD software and placed them 0.2mm apart.

    • @cskovach
      @cskovach 2 месяца назад +1

      If you don't have to look for tools then you can spend more time actually doing things. First order access (not stacking everything on top of each other) also protects tools and makes it easier to find everything. This is why super deep shelves are also a very poor way to store stuff - you have to remove everything in the front to access stuff in the back.
      That being said I get what you're saying. Turning everything into something controlled by a process, procedure, or Kanban card takes some of the life out of it. But like Pierson himself says, take what works for you and throw the rest away. Find whatever level of organization makes you the most efficient and stop there because that is all the more complicated the system needs to be.

    I started looking at Gridfinity after you mentioned it in your previous video, and I have my first try at a Gridfinity box printing right now as I watch this. Good timing, and I found this video quite helpful.

    ~ 8:18 -- The special support material is soluble, simply wash them in water, they'll disolve away and leave a clean print.

      @@digitalsparky It takes more time to dissolve those supports and then thoroughly dry the printed part compared to just using PETG + PLA which don't stick together and don't cost as much.

    There is a gridfinity add in for fusion that is really helpful for handling basic grid and bin printing. You can obviously then take and modify the basic parts it makes to your needs, but it's nice to be able to just tell it the grid pattern you want and heights and have the main part of the model done.

    Glad i waited, it never occurred to me to stack the grids.

    Stack in Orca or Bambu Studio (Assemble or Merge resp.) with a 0.2mm gap and ironing all top surfaces works great. It works great for multiboard and will work great with your modified gridfinity.
