Test Kit Holder (Aquaponics/Aquarium etc)

thingiverse

Here's how I created this custom API brand water test kit holder for my aquariums and aquaponics garden setup. The design is specifically tailored to store up to 10 test kits, featuring five color-coded charts and holding space for five test tubes with or without caps. I'm not affiliated with the API company, but I've designed this holder to be a useful accessory for anyone who uses their products. Here are my print settings: I used a Yasin 200 Dual Extruder printer, set to 0.2 mm resolution and 10% infill. The material was Yasin Grey PLA (1.75mm). When printing the Tray Handle, make sure it's oriented vertically with the star shape facing down on the print bed. You won't need a raft, as this design is optimized for smooth prints. After printing, simply slide the Tray Handle into the bottom of the Tray Base until it's flush. The fit should be snug but can be easily removed if needed. I created this holder in Solidworks to meet my specific needs, and I'm sharing it with you so you can create a custom version tailored to your setup.
