Bottle Holder - Wall Mount (fly trap)

Want to modify a design and don't know how. We can help and often work for free, email us to ask. See the contact detail on our page.
For more of my designs check out my website: https://3domcontact.wixsite.com/3dom

I made a Vinegar Fly trap from a used mustard bottle but melting some holes in the plastic lid with a hot nail. This is reasonably effective at getting rid of the flies so long as the rest of the temping food scraps and ripe fruit is kept away as much as possible.

The problem was i wanted to get it out of the way and stop it getting accidentally discarded during clean ups. The solution, mount it on the wall or cupboard.

This little holder or cradle is simple and light, and can be attached anywhere easily. The front is left open to aid in drill or screw driver access (or at least marking pen).
the bottom won't hold liquid or dirt as it is open at the from as well.

This jar slips easily in and out for cleaning and changing the vinegar.

How I Designed This

I modeled the bottle in Fusion 360, and used it as a basis for the rest of the design.
I have included the Fusion archive (Fly Trap holder.f3z) hear so that you can alter the bottle size in the sketch and the rest of the dimensions should update accordingly.

Let me know if you have any issues with the fusion design.
