The holder has the angle that conforms to the angle of the plastic blade mount. It will fit only in one direction, but this ensures the blades are facing away from the person.</p><p>The holder also has two small tabs that keep it secure from sliding.</p><p>&nbsp;</p><p>&nbsp;</p><p>&nbsp;</p><p>&nbsp;</p><p>&nbsp;</p><p>&nbsp;</p><h3><i><strong>UPDATE:</strong></i></h3><p>The Version 1 lasted for a long time, but as expected the way that the print layers are oriented cause it to be weak. I accidentally hit it and the holder snapped.</p><p>With that said i added another version that has a joint that has a tight fit. It is a strange looking joint that I designed, <strong>however </strong>it will not require any supports!!</p><figure class="image image-style-align-left image_resized" style="width:50.93%;"><img src="https://media.prusaprinters.org/media/prints/57910/rich_content/39640b7e-7876-4716-8437-33afdc36ff3d/image.png#%7B%22uuid%22%3A%220c7a1c15-5b0c-495d-a444-867babac6ea6%22%2C%22w%22%3A942%2C%22h%22%3A691%7D"></figure><p>The holder is printed in the same orientation as before, but the hook will be printed laying on its side (giving it more strength because of the layer orientation).</p><p>The joint fit should be tight!!! To prevent it from sliding from side to side.&nbsp;</p><p>I added 3 versions: .1 tolerance; .15 tolerance; and .2 tolerance.</p><p><strong>Most Printers will probably work well with the .15 tolerance version. This is the version I printed and it worked great for me.</strong></p><p><strong>NOTE: </strong>I added a few tolerance testing pieces that will allow you to test to see what fit works out for you.&nbsp;</p><p>Also if you download the assembly stl ensure to separate it (picture on the left) and lay them down (picture on the right)</p><figure class="image image_resized image-style-align-left" style="width:52.98%;"><img src="https://media.prusaprinters.org/media/prints/57910/rich_content/24559aa5-6d0d-4134-a538-e0d8d5b48da2/image.png#%7B%22uuid%22%3A%2244dc5929-06b5-4169-9a8e-f4f8c51f90fa%22%2C%22w%22%3A1261%2C%22h%22%3A828%7D"></figure><h3>&nbsp;</h3><figure class="image image-style-align-left image_resized" style="width:40%;"><img src="https://media.prusaprinters.org/media/prints/57910/rich_content/8db5ce02-ffdd-4bde-aa3f-9334a81b5f4a/image.png#%7B%22uuid%22%3A%222c1d739e-3fa0-43e4-8b71-3d8fbccd252f%22%2C%22w%22%3A968%2C%22h%22%3A472%7D"></figure><h3>&nbsp;</h3><h3>&nbsp;</h3><h3>&nbsp;</h3><h3>&nbsp;</h3><h3>&nbsp;</h3><h3>&nbsp;</h3><h3>&nbsp;</h3><h3>&nbsp;</h3><h3>&nbsp;</h3><h3><i><strong>VERSION 1:</strong></i></h3><ul><li>Supports needed on the top hanging portion (picture below, or download 3mf file)</li></ul><p><strong>Feel free to use my step file to change its use since i know most people don't have a dish rack.
