My wife asked if I could make her a pencil case for her embroidery pencils. I said “Sure. How many pencils?”

She replied, “160! And can you make it so I can see all of the colors?”

Here’s what I came up with.

I mounted it on an old spool that I made drawers for (Not included here.)

She’s happy, I’m happy!

Each piece prints separately.  I added keyways so that the holes will line up (not shown on the cross section picture, but they are in the .stls.)  I glued the sections.

The connector screws into the middle section. I used 8-32 x ½" screws and metal inserts for the female threads(2 required).

I used PETG, but any filament will do.  I added the connector so that it could be printed without using supports. 

Enjoy

 

Note: I updated the Base.stl file, as I found an error in the height of one level.
