I created this stackable color stand to organizer and store my Vallejo Air Brush colors in a compact but still easy accessible way.

The rows are slightly spaced and elevated to allow easier access and allow reading the numbers of the colors on the second and third row.
I also tried to create a mostly wall-only design so that the print uses less material and prints faster.

The stand/rack is designed with an inside diameter of 25.2 mm to support the common paint bottle from Vallejo, army painter, reaper etc.

The smaller pipette bottles shown in the picture are a bit wobbly but still ok.
If other stuff like swaps should be stored, a simple cylinder of 25 mm x 45 mm can be printed in vase mode and used instead a bottle.

If these settings are used, a Cartesian printer should be able to print one 3×5 shelf in under 4 hours.

P.S.

I also added STEP files and a 3×3 variant, so it is easier and faster to print a pair.
