Trying to think of a way to keep my GluBoost organized. I figured why not put the new 3-D printer to use. Works out great, really happy with how it came out

Very nice! The openings are deep enough so they don't tip out?

Great idea, because it's optimal for them to stay upright.

Excellent item. Nice angle for ease of access. Would you be willing to share the 3D printer file for this item? Thanks, Harry

I have the tolerances so that they fit in there snug enough to hold them. But I already decided to go back in the file and make it a little deeper anyway. But yes, this one works well
Absolutely, I just want to tweak it a little bit and make it a little taller. Then when I'm on the computer on Tuesday I'll share it
Nice!
I love these types of organization projects with my 3D printer. I have done this for my taps/die/drill bits/mandrels etc for kitless pens so I don't have everything all over the place and 3 different drill indexes out.
I was thinking... "I wonder if he embedded a magnet into the bottom to keep it still on the lathe?" and then the last picture answered that question!

Very Cool. Great Idea - very inspirational. If I didn't already have a dedicated space for mine I would be using my laser to build something like this! Outstanding. - Dave

For those that were interested and had asked, after 4 iterations, I finally landed on a final design of this caddy and uploaded it to Thingaverse this morning. Here is the finished product and all 4 iterations through the process to get to my final version

GluBoost Caddy by craighertzog
Always looking for a way to keep things organized, I wanted something to keep all my GluBoost products together so I could grab them all at one shot when finishing pens, so off to the 3D printer I went This holds the Ultra Thin, Thin and Pro along with the accelerator. The design uses 2 rare...

Excellent. This version looks like you have a winner. I already have my son printing this now. I can only imagine the rolls of filament being used up by many others to get this item made. Thanks.

Quick question - what's the overall size of the caddy? (The town library has a printer we can use but it's not very big, might have to find another if this won't fit.)
Thanks!
Thanks!

Roughly 6 1/2 x 2 1/2 x 1 1/2. If it's not big enough, pm me, I could always make one and send it to you
