Pen or Tool Stand / Spring Design

myminifactory

I was searching for a holder to keep my fountain pens standing upright and found nothing that caught my eye, so I took matters into my own hands and designed something from scratch. This pen tool stand boasts a unique design inspired by springs, complete with flexibility to boot. It comes in four different styles: straight round spring, tapered round spring, straight hex spring, and tapered hex spring. Each of these designs can be scaled down if needed, and I'm fairly certain scaling up is also possible. The springs print exceptionally well at a layer height of 0.2mm, with 0.3mm also an option if your printer supports it - just be aware that you'll need to add support within the parts and removing them can be a bit of a chore.
