# Current Challenge: September 2026
|
||||
|
||||
## Challenge: Gridfinity Extravaganza
|
||||
## Challenge: Practi"FALL" Prints
|
||||
|
||||
This month, we're diving into the world of **Gridfinity**! Whether you are a long-time user or completely new to the system, it's time to show off your organizational skills.
|
||||
As we head into fall, it's time to show off the practical power of 3D printing with **Practi"FALL" Prints**!
|
||||
|
||||
### The Focus: Organizational Efficiency
|
||||
The goal is to create a functional and well-executed Gridfinity module that solves a real-world storage problem or simply looks great.
|
||||
Whether it's an everyday household fix or a clever workshop tool, bring in a practical print that solves a problem or makes life easier.
|
||||
|
||||
### The Focus: Functional Utility & Everyday Practicality
|
||||
The goal is to design or print a functional item that serves a practical purpose. This can be anything from a simple door stop, cord clip, or drawer organizer, to a crazy multi-levered bottle or can opener, tool jig, or replacement bracket!
|
||||
|
||||
### Submission Requirements
|
||||
|
||||
* **Physical Model**: Bring your prints to the August meetup.
|
||||
* **Required Components**:
|
||||
* At least one **Gridfinity Base** (the base plate).
|
||||
* One **Top Accessory** that fits into that base. This can be a bin, a cover, a tool holder, or any other accessory of your choice.
|
||||
* **The Story**: Be ready to explain what the accessory is for and how you approached the print.
|
||||
* **Physical Model**: Bring your practical print to the **September 16th, 2026** meetup.
|
||||
* **Range of Entries**: Anything functional qualifies—from simple everyday utility items to complex mechanical openers or tools.
|
||||
* **The Story**: Be ready to demonstrate or explain what problem your print solves, how you use it, and your printing/design approach (materials, infill, orientation for strength, etc.).
|
||||
|
||||
### Judging & Prize
|
||||
|
||||
* **Voting**: The group will vote on their favorite entry based on utility, creativity, and print quality.
|
||||
* **Voting**: The group will vote on their favorite entry based on practical usefulness, creativity, and execution.
|
||||
* **Prize**: The winner will receive a **free spool of filament**!
|
||||
|
||||
