Pencil Holder

thingiverse

I wanted a cool and useful pencil holder, so I decided to create one. I printed a Gun Cylinder Pen / Pencil Holder from Thingiverse (https://www.thingiverse.com/make:209717), but it only had six holders. I checked out some other cool holders (https://www.thingiverse.com/thing:6476) and (https://www.thingiverse.com/thing:41703), but I wanted to make a unique holder. This one is configurable, allowing me to adjust parameters like the number of holders, rows, and wall thickness. I have attached an STL file for the holder I chose: 3 rows with 11 holders, 2 mm thick walls, and 8 mm holders. On April 10th, 2016, I decided to print a larger holder for sharpies and pencils. The pictures and STL files are available. My settings were: 3 rows with 13 holders, 3 mm thick walls, and 15 mm holders. I updated the OpenSCAD file by adding a rotated view and setting default values to 15 mm holes with 3mm thick walls. Please let me know if you have any suggestions for improvements. Here are my print settings: Printer: XYZPrinting Davinci Rafts: No Supports: No Resolution: Doesn't matter Infill: Doesn't matter
