Neogrid: organise your big items with this free and open source system!

Why are your drawers always a hot mess?

When someone peeks into your drawers, are you embarrassed that it's not neat and tidy in there? Perhaps you have Gridfinity to organise the small stuff but wish there was something for the bigger items, like clothes, cables, kitchen utensils or tools?

You're not alone! Here's what's wrong with your current systems:

Not adaptable — Your life changes all the time, but your set-up can't.

No standards — Most organisers don't match your drawers' dimensions – one size fits none.

Don't work together — Systems differ throughout your home, meaning you're having to use custom approaches everywhere.

Introducing Neogrid

Neogrid is designed to organise larger items, and is compatible with Gridfinity to allow you to mix different sized items in the same drawer. It uses 3D-printed connectors with flat sheet material (like uPVC window trim) to create configurable dividers.

How-To Guide

1. Choose your material

Neogrid supports all your material desires — MDF, acrylic, or uPVC utility board. uPVC comes in long lengths, requires minimal painting, and is suitable for indoor or outdoor use.

2. Print a test piece

Download the 3D-print files for free. Measure the thickness of your selected material (after painting!). By default the connectors cater for 8.5mm thick material.

3. Cut and Print

Cut your divider material into lengths. For greatest flexibility, use 160mm lengths (a multiple of 42mm for Gridfinity compatibility).

4. Print and fit

Print the 3D connectors you need — start with X junctions as these are the most flexible. Slot connectors onto your dividers with bottom and top pieces to hold in place.
