Gridfinity pen and pencil bin generator
A Gridfinity bin that holds pens and pencils upright, each in its own hole. Set the pen's diameter, how many along and how many rows.
How to make yours
- Set the pen's diameter; each pocket is 0.8 mm wider so it drops in.
- Set how many pens along and how many rows; the bin grows one 42 mm square at a time to hold them.
- Set how deep each pocket is, and tick on magnet holes if your baseplate has magnets.
- Download it as STL, 3MF or STEP, and print it.
What each slider does
- Pen diameter 6 to 14 mm
- How wide the pen or pencil is, across its widest part.
- Pens along 1 to 10
- How many pens sit side by side in a row.
- Rows 1 to 6
- How many rows of pockets there are, front to back.
- Pocket depth 10 to 60 mm
- How deep each pen sits; the bin's height follows in 7 mm Gridfinity units.
