Feature Request: centered magnet hole

Open Chamfer opened this issue 8 months ago • 1 comments

This is perhaps related to the request ucool321 made on Oct 4, 2024.

The Gridfinity Extended variant adds support for an optional center (magnet) hole. I'd love to see this added to the Workbench.

My own use case for this is compatibility with the 'Gridfinity with Pin' system published by One Maker Show on Maker World: https://makerworld.com/en/models/440624-gridfinity-with-pin#profileId-346300

When using the generator depicted in the picture above, of course I just set the values I need as shown. When making a custom bin with the Gridfinity Workbench I'm adding a datum plane to the bottom and manually placing the holes. It's not hard, but it'd be nice if it could be automated.
