Dry Erase Marker Holder

thingiverse

I wanted to hone my skills by creating objects at precise sizes, so when my wife requested a dry-erase marker holder, I decided to make one instead of searching for a pre-made version. I added some playful text that popped into my head, probably borrowed from somewhere, to give it a bit more personality. The lettering didn't print perfectly, especially the "m" in "marker," but it turned out well enough. Next, I colored the letters with dry-erase markers, which might smudge off over time. For those who prefer to add their own text, there's also a version without any words. I designed the back of the holder with a small inset for a magnet, but you may need to make the model slightly taller if you don't have broken hard drive magnets lying around in various shapes and sizes. The font I used is called "The Monkies Ate My Soul" by Dale Harris. It's free for both personal and commercial use. Print Settings: Printer Brand: Robo 3D Printer: R1 ABS + PLA Model Rafts: No Supports: No Resolution: .2 MM, Matter Control Medium Settings Infill: 15% Notes: The back inset has a 45-degree angle to prevent the need for supports.
