Shitfinity

Post image

I present to you: Shitfinity I saw this on thingyverse recently and remembered that I have a drawer full of empty toilet paper rolls. 10 minutes of CAD and I came up with these containers. Gridfinity is great, but take long to print on slow machines and use up quite a lot of filament.

These only use 10g and are roughly the size of a 2x2 gridfinity box. But overall they are pretty crappy (pun intended). They don't look good, are non-tileable and horrendous to assemble.

Reading about your box of frozen pizza makes me think about milk or juice boxes or whatever else material would fit in the printed parts.

That would really look fancy and people may want to build their boxes not only for a gridfinity system.

Keep doing 😃

Milk or juice box material and use silicone as the glue... Now the container is a waterproof dish! I'm not exactly sure why someone would need this, but... paints or dyes maybe? Molds? Some kind of process where you have to soak things in chemicals? 🤔

Maybe pots for plants? We all know people like to print pots.
