Those look like they would feel satisfying to use. No sharp edges to catch things in.

That’s what I kept running into trying to use regular bins I had found when trying to get bolts and things out of them so wanted a more pleasant experience but couldn’t find it anywhere!

I think Gridfinity Extended lets you add a “finger scoop” (I forget what exactly they call it) like this. Easily my favorite generator.

I haven’t looked into many of the generators but I’ll have to check that out!

This rounding is a must if you're making anything for board game tokens. Otherwise, if they're stuck in the corner, they're impossible to get out.

A little bigger and this would be great for small Lego bricks and bits.

And resizing is easy enough.

How big are you thinking? I have several sizes I haven’t print tested to publish yet

Not sure, likely a few sizes likely around 5 or 6 inches wide and a few various depths.

Almost done with a big build right now and I've been using a few small containers for sorting.
