FitGrid designs 3D-printable Gridfinity storage on your iPhone and exports files ready for your slicer. BUILD A BASEPLATE • Type in or measure a drawer opening and FitGrid plans a baseplate that fills it. • Standard 42 mm cells, with smaller edge cells for leftover space instead of oversized ones. • Choose Minimal frame, Reinforced frame, Solid-backed or Weighted plate styles and compare them side by side. • Optional magnet pockets, screw holes and mount-to-surface holes. • Large drawers are split to fit your printer's bed, with Dovetail joints that lock the pieces together. • Interactive 3D preview of the assembled plate and of each print bed. PLAIN GRIDFINITY BINS • Pick a width, depth and height in Gridfinity units. • Add a stacking lip, front scoop, label ledge, compartments, magnets or screws. • Match a bin to exact cells on a saved baseplate, including smaller edge cells. SHAPED INSERTS (LiDAR devices) • On an iPhone or iPad with LiDAR, scan an object and FitGrid builds a fitted holder insert for it. • Scanning and 3D reconstruction run entirely on your device. EXPORT • Export 3MF or STL and share with AirDrop, Files or any app. • For the Bambu Lab H2C with PLA, 3MF files include ready Bambu Studio project settings. • Printer presets include Bambu Lab A1, P1S and H2C, Prusa MINI+, MK4 and XL, and Creality Ender 3.
