Bit Compatibility

  • Standard 1/4"
  • 4mm bits
  • Leatherman-style bits (also compatible with Galvanox and other brands)
  • Double-ended Wiha bits
  • Double-ended Steinwhale bits

How It Works

Enter up to four dimensions and the model generates the optimal layout automatically — number of rows, bit orientation, and whether to use one or both sides of the carrier. It also accounts for bit stickout, which matters when fitting the carrier into a pouch or storage container.

Key inputs:

  • Carrier dimensions — width, depth, thickness. The model picks the best layout for whatever space you have.
  • Bit type — changes slot geometry and spacing automatically.
  • Magnet size — set to 0 to remove, or dial in your preferred size.

Advanced Settings

These are exposed for users who want precise control, but defaults work well for most builds:

  • Clearance — bit slot clearance (default 0.3mm)
  • Wall Min / Floor Min — minimum plastic between slots
  • Margin — plastic between slots and the edge of the part
  • Bevel R / Entry Bevel — outer edge bevel and slot entry bevel for easier bit insertion

Example Build

Fitting a carrier into a Leatherman sheath: measure your sheath (e.g. 50 x 100 x 20mm), enter dimensions, select bit type, set magnet size with 0.2mm clearance, generate, and print. Add magnets using a stack-push method with a small amount of glue.
