your link points to the wrong location.

i was going to create an issue as a repo or dump of all the variants to bases and bins for future reference. was also brought up here: https://github.com/Stu142/FreeCAD-Gridfinity-Workbench/issues/51#issuecomment-2600959709

A new Issue would be good for the baseplate connection if you have a specific recommendation. Currently there is the screw together option and I would like to explore an alternative for snap together as you suggested but there are many things above that I want to add first.

here are the ones ive come across:

Thank you for your answer. I updated the url to the correct source. In general this options would be very nice.

Good recommendation, and the license would allow use. There are several other big features in progress but I hope I could get to this eventually.
