CAIBI ASSESSMENT

Gridfinity Rebuilt

A parametric OpenSCAD implementation of Gridfinity bins with configurable sizes, compartments, tabs, bases and print options.

CAIBI VERDICTBUILD IT

It converts a useful storage standard into something configurable. AI can help generate or modify parameter sets without turning every custom bin into a CAD exercise.

AI CAN HELP

Useful work to hand to AI

Parameter changes
OpenSCAD edits
Customisation

AI CAN'T DO

The physical boundary

Measure the real objects and drawer space accurately
Print the part
Check physical fit and tolerances
Decide whether the result is strong, accessible and practical in real use

BUILD WITH AI

Start with the project, not a blank prompt.

The CAIBI build pack gives an AI assistant the source, the known constraints, the useful AI work and the physical boundary. It is designed to help you move faster without pretending the AI has built the thing for you.

I want to build Gridfinity Rebuilt.

Source project: https://github.com/kennetek/gridfinity-rebuilt-openscad

Use the source as the authority. Do not invent parts, dimensions, prices or capabilities that are not published.

AI can help with: Parameter changes, OpenSCAD edits, Customisation.
AI cannot physically do: Measure the real objects and drawer space accurately, Print the part, Check physical fit and tolerances, Decide whether the result is strong, accessible and practical in real use.
Tools and capabilities involved: 3D printer.
CAIBI's main concern: The design work is easy compared with print time. Large storage systems consume more filament and machine hours than the first few bins suggest.

Start by checking the source, confirming the current parts and build instructions, then give me a staged plan. Clearly separate source facts from your suggestions. Stop and ask me to verify anything that depends on physical fit, wiring, calibration or safety.

THE BUILD

How it actually comes together

Check the source ↗

YOU

Measure what you need to store

Decide the footprint, height, compartments and features required before changing parameters.

AI + YOU

Generate the bin

Set the OpenSCAD parameters for size, compartments, tabs, holes, lip and base options. AI can help turn dimensions or a storage brief into parameter changes.

AI + YOU

Render and inspect

Render the model and check the generated geometry before spending print time and material.

YOU

Print a test

Print the part and check fit, clearances and how it works with the rest of the storage system.

AI + YOU

Iterate the parameters

Adjust the model from the physical test, then produce the final quantity once the fit is right.

WHAT YOU NEED

Key components

OpenSCAD
3D printer
Filament
Optional magnets or fasteners depending on configuration

What supports the verdict

SOURCEkennetek

Source available

The OpenSCAD implementation supports configurable bin size, compartments, tabs, holes, lips and bases.
The project includes options aimed at reducing support requirements and saving filament.
The main practical cost is filament and print time rather than electronics.
