Nail file holder / makeup brush

thingiverse

My wife keeps her nail files inside the bathroom medicine cabinet, but laying them down causes them to fall out when we open the door. We didn't have a suitable cup to fit in the space, so I decided to design and print one. I might have added too much base material, but it prevents the cup from tipping over if you place a nail file on it. This nail file holder is 3 inches tall and 2 1/8 inches wide, making it a standard size for most medicine cabinets. My wife uses this to store her makeup brushes as well, and surprisingly, it fits perfectly due to its compact size. It can hold many brushes while being easy to remove them when needed.

Alternatively, you can opt for the longer version: http://www.thingiverse.com/thing:2121914. I printed this using PLA's turquoise filament from Just PLA: https://www.justpla.com/turquoise-play175-1kg?search=PLAY175TRQ-1KG. Print Settings: Printer: Wanhao Duplicator i3 Rafts: No Supports: No Resolution: 0.2 Infill: 10% Notes: I printed mine with two walls for the top, bottom, and sides. However, there's a small area inside the cup that didn't seal properly due to this design choice. Post-Printing: Place nail files inside the holder and store it in your medicine cabinet. Enjoy your new storage solution! Design Software: Tinkercad
