This is the most recent update on the open vertical-storage-system project I've been building out for several months. Think of it as gridfinity for walls....
Even with modern circuit-board-style 3D printer beds, they still have thermal momentum and the beds on lower-end printers might experience some temperature irregularities without being "broken" or otherwise fully out-of-spec....
