Finally got around to printing a bunch of lid holders and got everything nice and neat. Some missing because they are in use. Also you can see my printed spice rack.

    Ha, yes, this is the one I printed. I didn’t need them so tall and they use a lot of filament so I cut off the bottoms mostly and they are perfect sizes for all my lids. The only thing I should have done is brought them into Fusion 360 and added more slots instead of printing a bunch of holders of 5 only. But it’s not really an issue. It takes up a bit more space, but I love having everything in one place and nothing is falling over or sliding around.

      Very nice! I have the same locking Rubbermaid lids and I use an accoridian stainless plate holder for them. It works quite well, but this looks even a little bit better and is a perfect unnecessary 3d printing project to add to my list. Assume the medium lids (second shelf down on left) are with the regular stl, not the “big” one? Assume PLA for this? Doesn’t really need to be PETG does it? Agree no supports needed? 15% infill?

        Oh yes, almost nothing I print is “necessary” but I love problem solving with printing. Can you link the accordion holder. Having trouble visualizing it.

        Yes the big STL is only the top shelf. I love those locking lid containers, I end up using those instead of ziplock bags because they are so nice.

        I used Polymaker white PLA and with cutting off the bottom, it’s all solid inside since it’s all so thin, so infill doesn’t matter. No supports.

          One of these: https://a.co/d/b0xLCEm

          Im excited to try these holders though. I’ve been photographing different items in the kitchen, using photo to stl conversion and making placeholders for things with that technique - so yes, the obsession is real.

            Lol know exactly what you mean. Yeah I don’t think I’d like that accordion thing. Adjustable stuff never stays how I want it.
