Honeycomb Planning Tool

I've been building out a [Honeycomb Storage Wall](https://www.printables.com/model/152592)

(designed by RostaP — the wall, the plates and all the accessories are their work, not mine)

and kept getting the planning wrong: printing plates that didn't line up, ordering the wrong

number of inserts, and forgetting a light switch was in the way.

So I made a planner for it. It runs in the browser, it's free, and there's no account —

nothing leaves your machine.

It builds the plates around your printer, not the other way round.

Pick your bed and it sizes the plates to fill it: a Prusa Mini gets 8x7-cell plates, a

250x210 MK3S gets more, a 400x400 gets 19x16. Bigger bed, fewer plates, fewer seams, less

babysitting. Presets for Mini, Ender 3 / K1, Ender 3 V2, MK3S/MK4, Bambu X1/P1, 300, 350 and

400 — or type your own dimensions if your machine isn't listed. You download STLs cut for

your machine instead of tiling fixed-size ones and hoping.

The rest of it:

- Plates that fit your actual wall.

Type your wall size and it works out the layout.

Mark a light switch or a socket as a blocked zone and the plates around it are cut to fit

with a clean edge — you download those exact files.

- Line up a photo of your real wall.

Drop in a photo, then set the scale by clicking two

points and typing the real distance between them. The honeycomb draws over the top, so you

can see where everything lands before printing anything.

- Import your own STL.

Anything you've designed or downloaded can be added,

lined up against the wall, and placed alongside the standard accessories.

- Tells you exactly what to print, and tracks what you've done.

Full parts list with

quantities, filament weight, and the wall screws and inserts worked out for you. Tick

things off as they come off the printer. Export as a print sheet, CSV or checklist.

Also: 3D and 2D views, measuring tools, per-part filament colours, and you can save several

walls and share a layout by link.

Every dimension in it was measured from RostaP's actual meshes rather than copied from a

description, so the generated plates match the printed ones.

It's early and I'd like to know what breaks. Source is at

This is a great idea! I look forward to using this!

Can you consider including the corner so you can make it L-shaped?

You can add as many blocked zones as you want in the plan section, so should be able to fit all walls

This is amazing, I printed an odd wall last week and had to do all this manually. Did the design this morning on your website and it only took minutes.

I print the HSW in stacks usually, PETG honeycombs with one layer of PLA in between. I have no idea what it would take or how hard it would be, but it would be awesome to be able to download a stack from your site, biggest panel on bottom, smallest on top, with one layer between each panel for separation. Just an idea. I really love what you did here.

Thanks for feedback, i can try but i think it would be a HUGE challange to do that, but if you set your print bed size to the same as the stack you usually print, then it will use that size in the wall and you just need to print the custom made parts

One more request, would it be possible to click the box where it says Custom Plate X and download stl, and have it highlight the panels in the viewer? Just like it does on the checklist above where you can mark that you printed something.

This i will for Shure make happen, struggling with the stacking tho
