This set of boxes is designed specifically for storing cables. They have a lightweight design to use a minimum amount of plastic. The extended container’s edge prevents cables from slipping out.
These boxes are alterations of my original design but are adapted to work with Gridfinity modular system. I tried to keep them as light as possible and they are just a little bit bigger and heavier than the previous. But if you are not interested in using grid system I would recommend to stay with original model.
The boxes are made in 6 sizes and have variations with or without slots for magnets on the bottom side. All of them are two slots wide but vary in length.
| Used slots on a grid | Dimensions, mm | Compartments | Weight, g (With magnet slots) |
| 2×1 | 42x84x66 | 2 | 28 (29) |
| 2×2 | 84x84x66 | 4 | 45 (48) |
| 2×3 | 126x84x66 | 6 | 63 (66) |
| 2×4 | 168x84x66 | 8 | 80 (84) |
| 2×5 | 210x84x66 | 10 | 97 (102) |
| 2×6 | 252x84x66 | 12 | 114 (120) |
Gridfinity
For those who don’t know what Gridfinity is, here is a link to the designer’s site https://gridfinity.xyz/. You can find a lot of various models suitable for this system on different marketplaces.
Printing recommendation
I recommend using PETG or PLA+ for better durability but regular PLA will also work fine.
Should be printed without supports.
You need magnets of 6mm diameter and 2mm thickness for variant with magnet slots. But it is not necessary to use magnets in every slot. It’s up to you to decide where to place them.
Compatibility
This organizer is ideally suited for managing short (up to several meters) flexible cables. It is not suitable for thicker or stiffer cables like HDMI, DisplayPort, and similar types.
