Learn by building the part
Parametric Gridfinity baseplate
One 42 mm cell with the standard Gridfinity socket profile, repeated W × H by a pattern whose counts are parameters you declare as you type them. Six steps: a stepped cut, inline parameters, and the window where you change them afterwards.
6 steps
Herringbone gear with a D-bore
A gear drawn with two clicks, extruded with a twist, bored with a D for a shaft, chamfered on every tooth by one revolved triangle, and mirrored into a herringbone. Seven steps: the External gear tool, a twist, a through-all cut, a subtracting revolve and a 3D mirror.
7 steps
Pen cup with a hexagonal grille
An 80 mm pen cup with rounded corners and one side perforated by a honeycomb grille you take ready-made from the store. Seven steps: extrude, fillet, shell, chamfer, and to finish, a SmartObject placed on a face — turned 90° so every hole prints standing up without supports, with a plain border around it.
7 steps
Soap dish, in two pieces
A 150 × 80 soap dish and the drainer that drops into it: one block rounded, hollowed and chamfered, and a plate traced from the basin itself, floating ten millimetres over its floor, shrunk half a millimetre to fit and perforated by the store's Voronoi Cells. Eleven steps: parameters, fillet, shell, chamfer, offset, offset body, and a boolean that shapes one part against the other.
11 steps
Spinning tray on a stand
Two bodies printed in one go, already assembled: a round stand with a post, and a ring-shaped tray that sits around the post with one millimetre of clearance everywhere — printed without supports, it turns freely straight off the printer. Ten steps: fillet, extrude up to a face, offset a face for clearance, shell.
