Small holder designed to hold a 10ml (or larger) spray bottle. The idea was that I was using up a lot of IPA/Meths just in a rag when wiping down my bed but 2 sprays from the bottle was more than enough for my needs.
Search "10ml glass spray bottle" on ebay or online marketplace of your preference to find the ones I'm using. The diameter of the hole is 14.5mm and the height is 45mm if you need the dimensions to check a different bottle.

Comes in 3 different flavours, single, double and triple so you can add as few or as many of your favourite libations to your printer. I'm using IPA and meths at the moment (picture shows two single holders side by side as I have not printed a double in the material of my choice at the moment). The double and triple holders do shave a little horizontal width off.

The clasp snaps into the common v-slot 2020 extrusions with a firm push and can easily be levered out again from the bottom but is otherwise snug. The hole is tight enough to allow a little wiggle room but I have not noticed any rattles.

Theoretically they do restrict the limits of the Z axis a little but personally I do not print that tall and already have something else that would intefere first at that height. If people feel strongly about this then let me know and I can either move the clasps to the bottom or feel free to remix yourself, I've included .step files but let me know if you want something else that can be exported from Fusion 360.

Update 10/02/2020: Moved the clasps to the bottom of the holders for mounting on the top of the rail to allow for full movement of Z axis. I have not yet printed these and they may require additional consideration in terms of supports and printing orientation. The files are suffixed with '_BMount' to distinguish them from the originals. As before I have uploaded the .step files if you should wish to remix etc.
