Description
The rack by @AnthonyS was exactly what I was looking for for storing my paintbrush colours. The tolerances for the bottle slots were a fair bit looser than I wanted and the clips required supports and manual trimming to fit. Aside from the OpenSCAD source files, I've attached several stls: single_clip.stl - this is identical to the one in the original model except that it is 0.1mm narrower. Use this if you don't need spacers. double_clip.stl, single_brace.stl, double_brace.stl. For stacking two shelves on top of each other, you need two double clips and two single braces (see pictures). The clips should be printed in PETG. For attaching two columns of shelves, use the double brace. 25.5mm_double_row_shelf.stl, 36.5mm_tall_shelf.stl examples of generated files with tighter tolerances than the originals. These fit the bottles seen in the pictures very well. bracket_outline_DONOTPRINT.stl - don't print this :D (see below) For sides, bottoms, and top, use the files from the original model Generating Custom Shelves Open shelf.scad in OpenSCAD enable/disable “two rows” depending on whether you want two rows for this shelf and set the second row z offset Set bottle diameter and slot height (the latter being how high the walls of the bottle slot will be) as desired Play around with bottles per row, x spacing, and y-spacing until you are satisfied with the arrangement. In preview mode, a see-through outline of the brackets will be shown. Make sure that there is at least a minimal gap between the walls of the bottle slots and the brackets to ensure compatibility. Render (the see-through brackets will automatically be excluded from the generated model)
