Being inherently lazy, I designed this Gridfinity-based container because I was tired of opening all the little cufflink boxes every time I needed a pair.
To design it, I used this template, which I find very convenient because it’s easily parameterizable in its dimensions.
The container, in fact, can be customized for the number of Gridfinity boxes in width and length, as well as the number and diameter of the holes on the surface.
This way, it’s possible to create containers suitable for all the different types of cufflinks you own.
How to Parameterize the Model
The model design was created using Adobe Fusion 360 and is configurable using the “Modify/Change Parameters” function in Fusion 360.
The available parameters are as follows:
| Parameter | Meaning |
|---|---|
| Blocks_width | Number of Gridfinity blocks along the width side |
| Blocks_lenght | Number of Gridfinity blocks along the length side |
| Blocks_height | Height of the Gridfinity blocks |
| Cufflink_Hole_Width | Diameter of cufflinks holes |
| Cufflink_Distance_Width_Side | Starting distances of first hole along the width side |
| Cufflink_Distance_Lenght_Side | Starting distances of first hole along the length side |
| Cufflink_Holes_Width_Side | Number of holes long the width side |
| Cufflink_Holes_Lenght_Side | Number of holes long the length side |
Default parameters
You can use the values from this table to quickly start your model.
