Slotwise scans the tool in your hand with your iPhone's LiDAR camera, then designs a holder that fits it and hangs it on your IKEA SKÅDIS pegboard. It works out how many clips the weight needs, so you just print it and clip it on.
iPhone with LiDAR · iOS 18 · STL for any slicer
What it does
No CAD, no measuring with calipers, no guessing whether two clips will take the weight.
Walk around the tool and Apple's Object Capture builds a 3D model on the phone. Slotwise measures it in millimetres, ready to design around.
It suggests a peg through a closed handle, a side-on holster for drills, or a cradle on shaped arms, and you can switch. Trays get a pocket molded to the scan.
Enter the weight and Slotwise adds clips, and grows the plate, until each one carries its share three times over. Pull-test your own clips and enter what they held.
Not everything needs a scan. Make a bin from inside sizes, a rack for screwdrivers or wrenches, or a pair of hooks, in the same rounded style.
Slotwise suggests where everything goes, heaviest near the fixings, and snaps each holder into real slots. Preview the board in 3D or on your actual wall.
One board per panel, each with its own size and thickness. They sync over iCloud, and you can share a board with someone so you both can work on it.
Made to print
Holders print lying on their back, so the rules that keep a print clean are built into the shapes. You get a part that comes off the plate ready to hang.
Bins and trays print standing up instead. Exports are plain STL, so they work in whatever slicer you use.
How it works
Everything happens on your iPhone. No account, and nothing is uploaded to us.
Set the tool on a plain, matte surface and walk around it. Turn it over and scan again to catch the underside.
Pick the holder style, enter the weight, and check the preview with the tool sitting in it. Add it to a board when you're happy.
Send the STL to your printer, with the clips alongside. Push it into the slots, twist the clips, and hang the tool up.
