## Recommendations
For best results, use a version of OpenSCAD with the fast-csg feature. As of writing, this feature is only implemented in the [development snapshots](https://openscad.org/downloads.html). To enable the feature, go to Edit > Preferences > Features > fast-csg. On my computer, this sped up rendering from 10 minutes down to a couple of seconds, even for comically large bins.
## Global Parameters
These are the parameters that define the type of bin being constructed. Therefore, they impact everything that does not relate to compartments, such as the base and the outside wall.
Parameter | Range | Description
--- | ----- | ---
`gridx` | {n>0\|n∈Z} | number of bases along the x-axis
`gridy` | {n>0\|n∈Z} | number of bases along the y-axis
`length` | {n>0\|n∈R} | size of the square bases in millimeters, default 42
`gridz` | {n>=0\|n∈R} | height value (can be interpreted in various ways)
`gridz_define` | {0,1,2} | • (0) Unit height: `gridz` is the height in units (7mm increments). The stock bins have a unit height value of 2, 3, or 6. The overall height of the bin is `7*u + 3.8` millimeters, where the 3.8 is the height of the top lip. <br> • (1) Internal height: `gridz` is the height from the bottom of a compartment to the top of the tab in millimeters. This is effectively the maximum height of an object that can fit inside the bin. <br> • (2) External height: `gridz` is the overall height of the bin, from the base to the upper lip fillet. This is effectively how deep a drawer must be to fit the bin.
`enable_holes` | boolean | toggle holes for magnets and M3 screws on the base of the bin
`enable_hole_slit` | boolean | toggle the printable countersunk hole cut
`enable_zsnap` | boolean | have the bin increase in height until it matches the nearest 7mm increment. Useful if a bin needs to be a minimum internal size to fit a part (i.e. `gridz_define == 1`) but you still want the bin to fit within the sizing standards of the gridfinity system
`enable_lip` | boolean | toggles the lip at the top of the bin that allows for bin stacking
