Gunpla Storage PostThis is the expanded version of my 3D printed Multiboard display for my model kits. All but 3 of my assembled kits are up there. It's a bit chaotic, but I definitely have more available wall space than floor space.@gunpla #gunpla #modelkits #Functional3DPrint #multiboard #3Dprinted

A cacophany of wall-mounted Bandai model kits on something similar to a pegboard. Most are in a flying pose, with one on a 3D printed shelf.

Cool display!

Suggestion: either a black backdrop or white grid. It would make it easier to see them all if there wasn’t the contrast of your light wall color and the dark grid color.

    @Zachariah Thanks, and thank you for the suggestion. I'll look into a few different ways to do that.Edit: the terrible lighting in that room really doesn't help

    Since the fediverse bridge wasn't behaving, I made a Lemmy account. Here's Part One

    Ultimately it all came from here: https://www.multiboard.io/parts-library

    Some specific ones I used include:

    Tiles (20 6x6): https://thangs.com/search/%22Multiboard1%22%20creator%3A%22Keep%20Making%22?scope=thangs&view=list

    Offset snaps (I used 8mm, which is deprecated): A - https://thangs.com/search/%22MB18%22%20creator%3A%22Keep%20Making%22?scope=thangs&view=list B - https://thangs.com/designer/Multiboard/3d-model/Snap%20%28DS%20Part%20B%29-1323061

    Hooks: https://thangs.com/search/%22MB180%22%20creator%3A%22Keep%20Making%22?scope=thangs&view=list

    Pegs: https://thangs.com/search/%22MB182%22%20creator%3A%22Keep%20Making%22?scope=thangs&view=list

    Locking bolt: https://thangs.com/designer/Multiboard/3d-model/Locking%20T-Bolt-1310062

    Snaps: https://thangs.com/designer/Multiboard/3d-model/Moderate%20Weight-Bearing%20Snap-1311034

    Wherever you want to use the mounting offset snaps, you'd use a friction fit.

    Hm, gonna be a two parter.

    Huh, never really thought to use the wall like that for gunpla.

    Also, I thought I recognize the grid. Only looked into multiboard a bit, and I have a few videos I put in my watch list about it as well as gridfinity.

    Both looks like a great system to organize your stuff, and the kind of things I imagine I'd do if I have a 3D printer.
