Hexagonal Spice Bottle Rack

thingiverse

Initially, I attempted to design a stackable spice rack for my kitchen without a 3D printer. The compartments were designed to hold round spice bottles with a diameter of approximately 50mm, with all lids facing frontwards for easy identification. However, upon receiving the kit, I realized that I hadn't physically printed this design yet. An update on January 10, 2013, revealed that the initial model might not fit the Printrbot+ print bed due to its size. Subsequent revisions aimed to modify the shape for better compatibility with the print bed and create a modular/stackable design. Additional shapes were added on January 11, 2013, for interlocking functionality. On February 18, 2013, after finally setting up my printer, I encountered issues with lengthy printing times (6-8 hours) and poor fit of interlocking parts due to insufficient clearance around interface areas. Adjustments to the shapes are planned for future improvements.
