General JIGFINITY lets you glue ‘em and press ’em, then stack ‘em, and store ’em. Simple! It's an all-in-one Gridfinity Baseplate AND Bin magnet jig that is also a 2u Gridfinity bin. So when you are done using it, you can stack them compactly in your gridfinity system.

Printing Jigfinity prints in three small parts: bin-jig, base-jig, and magnet-holder. Print two (or more) of each for ultimate stackability!
- The magnet holes in the model are set to 6.15mm. This size worked great for a snug fit on my Bambu Lab P1S in Elegoo PLA Black and Bambu PLA Basic Orange with these magnets. You may get a different fit.
- I would recommend using some kind of support material for the base jig, as the little magnet lifters don't print great without it. I used Bambu's PLA Support in my AMS. If you don't have an AMS you can always pause the print and manually change materials for the one support layer.
- Alongside the STL, I've included the full Bambu Slicer profile and the original Solidworks file to edit as needed. The Solidworks file is based on EllieWhoMakes' parametric Gridfinity bin model.
Assembly Materials:
- 1x (printed) Bin-jig
- 1x (printed) Base-jig
- 1x (printed) Magnet-holder
- 4x 6x2mm (standard Gridfinity) magnets per Jigfinity.
How to Use Jigfinity To Assemble Gridfinity Baseplates:
- Set the whole Jigfinity assembly down so that the base-jig is on top, and place magnets on the four magnet lifts - they will snap to the right orientation.
- (Apply minimal super glue as needed to the holes in the baseplate.)
- Flip the Jigfinity over, magnets down, and remove the bin-jig
- Place the Jigfinity with magnets into the base.
- With your finger in the “holdy-hole,” separate the magnet holder from the Jigfinity.
- (Press each magnet as needed.)
- Lift off the base-jig.
