FPL - fully printable lab part III: drying rack for volumetric flasks

prusaprinters

Another part of the fully printable lab is my drying rack for volumetric flasks. Standard racks often consist of simple pins and volumetric flasks are prone to breaking since they are hold at the neck and not at the sturdy base. This rack holds them at the base.The model consists of the basic rack which fits well for 1000 mL flask. Included are reduction rings to make it even fit for smaller flasks. The rings have a tight fit, consider printing them at 99% size.I printed the rack with no supports at 0.2 mm layer height with only minor artifacts at the ring-opening. PLA should be good enough for the rack but you can of course switch to PETG or PCTG for better resistance against chemicals and moisture.I tried to print with 0.3 layer height and got a some more artifacts in the upright hex-part but the rack still works.Have fun, share and remix as you like.Check out the other parts of the FPL:https://www.printables.com/de/model/857006-fpl-fully-printable-lab-part-ii-volumetric-flask-phttps://www.printables.com/de/model/789718-fpl-fully-printable-lab-part-i-lab-stand
