The stl of the screw hole in case you want to import() it:

The author describes it as such:

The screw hole in the bin is an ISO Metric Profile, 15.0mm size, M15x1.5 designation, 6H class hole. There is an offset to the thread faces of 0.125mm to provide a little bit of slop to make it easier to secure the thumbscrew.

Hmm, that linked to https://www.printables.com/model/417152-gridfinity-specification Now to compare that to the PRs which I already have in the pipe to generate things based on the spec.

It's an interesting idea, but I'm going to wait until at least PR #179 is merged to start work.

Hi @TechyShishy, see the above pull request if you want these screw holes as an option. I didn't use the provided STL - it didn't play well with OpenSCAD when performing a difference() operation. I've used the threads-scad library instead. I didn't include the 0.125mm offset as it didn't seem necessary based on my test prints (unless it's somehow included in the threads-scad library). Hope it works for you!
