Bento3D

What is Bento3D?

Bento3D is a freemium browser tool that designs trays and boxes split into compartments, a bit like a bento lunch box. You type the width, depth and height in millimeters, then divide the floor into rows and columns in a grid editor and split cells into smaller ones where you need them. A 3D preview follows every change, and the finished parts download as one 3MF file or as a ZIP of STL files.

Three models are free and need no sign-in: a divided tray with settings for wall thickness, rounded corners, divider height and stacking, a hinged box whose lid is held by two M2 x 30 mm screws and two 2 x 28 mm dowel pins, and a wall tray that hangs on an IKEA Skadis hook or a small round magnet (the wall tray needs supports). A Gridfinity mode builds bins and baseplates and exports up to three bins at a time for free.

Other models, such as a slide-lid box, a hinged box with no hardware and folding boxes and trays, are one-time paid unlocks, and each has a small free sample file. Bento3D suits anyone who wants a drawer insert or parts organizer that fits an exact space.
