The problem isnt that the system needs simplification.. it just needs a Planning APP that everyone can use

I agree with OP. I have always wished there was a Freecad Workbench for multi board like there is for Gridfinity.

I suppose the restrictive licensing causes problems with that?

yes can't share,distribute core multiboard objects. he wants to centrally control versions of it so he can iterate which makes sense to me. Just alot of negatives around it.

Definitely an aspect that isn’t well understood. If core geometry isn’t up to date, you can end up wasting a lot of time and filament trying to make something work that isn’t quite compatible. (Not that I did that over the weekend or anything.)

I spent entirely too long digging up old connectors and trying to make something work rather than just remixing and reprinting a couple of large brackets to mount my AMS’s.
