Update 3/31/2024 - There is a newer Version 2.0 of these bins now available. You can find them here:

And now, back to the regularly scheduled programming:
There is a new lidded bin for Gridfinity, it's a small and simple 1x1x6U bin. This 1x1x6U model is the first to get a filament hinge option though, which I plan to add to the others as well. There is also an alternative tab design available (on the 1x1x6U only) which flips the tab around 180º, which I am seeking feedback on. If it's preferred then I may add that to the other designs as well.
Currently the following lidded bins are available:

Currently the following lidded bins are available:
- 6 compartment 4x1 (6U) bin with lids
- 3 compartment 2x1 (6U) bin with lids
- 1 compartment 2x1 (6U) bin with a magnet pickup tool
- 1 compartment 1x1 (6U) bin with lid (versions with a filament hinge pin and rotated tab available with this model only)
Update 3/27/2024: I've gotten some really great feedback from Ch3vr0n @ Printables on the current design, and made some updates to the design. I am gonna test these, but the changes include:
- 25% larger tabs
- Wider (110°) opening tabs
Update 3/29/2024: There have been a few more iterations of the tab design since the post on 3/27. I think though, the design shown below will be the final version. The tab opens to 80° which seems like plenty, and more importantly, it is a bit thicker and has a more robust hinge. I went ahead and added it to the rest of the bins, and also re-worked the 1x4 6 compartment bin so the doors would be the same size.
For the sake of simplicity, I plan to upload these as one post, and will add links to the new version from the old versions. That should happen soon.
