Gridfinity 2x3 Altoids Tin Adapter
This is a 2x3 Gridfinity adapter / holder for a standard-sized Altoids tin. Now your favorite Altoids tin project can be part of your favorite storage organization project.
The default file will have a little space around the tin so that you can just pick it up and put it down. If you want it to fit tightly in the space, print the SNUG FIT version of the file.
You can also modify the base template however you like, though. There's quite a bit of room on the sides of the tin slot, so be creative.
Recommend the following settings:
Layer height: .24 - .32 Walls / Top / Bottom: 3 Infill: 10% - 20% Supports: none

First of all, thank you for your work! I love this idea.
Just as a friendly heads-up, though, I printed the Altoids + USB version today and unfortunately it will not seat fully into any of my gridfinity baseplates, no matter how hard I try to shove it down. Looking at the object in Cura reveals that the spacing of the base grid is (and indeed the overall dimensions of the entire part are) ever so slightly out of whack compared to models with which I've had success.
For example, here's an orthographic-view screenshot of the bottom of your design (left side) vs the bottom of a similar 2x3 gridfinity component (right side).
The issue is most apparent when comparing the central diamonds (starbursts?). They need to be symmetrical in the X and Y axes (as seen in the right object) in order for the part to properly mate to the baseplate with minimal binding.
The overall x, y dimensions of your part are 83mm x 125.3mm, while the overall dimensions of a typical 2x3 gridfinity block are generally much closer to 84mm x 126mm, with each 1x1 section being ~42mm at its widest x or y point. Of course, some negative tolerance is generally included for smooth fitment next to other modules. I've seen >= -0.5mm max, regardless of total sectional size.
Again, I really appreciate your work here, and on your other gridfinity models! As a fellow gridfinity system devotee and designer this is purely meant to be constructive criticism!
Thanks for the tip - I included the USB version as a last-minute thing and I admittedly didn't test-print it. I'll remove it from the selection until I can remake it and add it back in. Sorry about that! I can confirm however that the base model and snug fit versions work - I have printed and use both.
The golden standard.
