8mm Pipette Stand

thingiverse

Using pipette racks as frames, specifically those holding 8mm-diameter tubes such as sterile 5mL serological pipettes, is an effective method. Post-Printing Setup: Print two angled brackets to serve as the base and four screw brackets for the frame. Attach two vertical rods to horizontal rods using the screw brackets. These will rest on the pipette handle and barrel respectively. The screwable holes, from which the bit has been removed, are designed to prevent the vertical rods from slipping due to gravity. Insert hex-head 4mm bolts into the screwable holes and secure with a 4mm nut. Position the vertical rods within the angled holes found in the angle brackets. Connect an additional horizontal rod through the angle brackets for added stability.
