After I had upgraded my Prusa MK3S+ with the Revo hotend (Revo Six, fully loaded), I also needed a storage option for the nozzles.
My first choice was the holder from E3D_ (https://www.printables.com/de/model/99012-revo-nozzle-holder-for-prusa-mk3s).
But then I bought another nozzle, a 0.6 mm ObXidian. Further ObXidian nozzles (e.g. 0.4 mm) are still to follow.
There was no more room for these additional nozzles on my printed holder.
Since I still like the design of the old holder, I created my own one for up to seven Revo nozzles.
My holder is not a remix in the classic sense. I created my version completely new in CAD, from scratch.
I based it on the design of the original by E3D_ and, for example, adopted the dimensions and, as with the original, integrated an E3D logo.
In the current version of my model, I have also integrated labels for the individual nozzle sizes. The STL file contains a multi-body model. Using the 'Split to Parts' function in the PrusaSlicer, the numbers can be made visible, given their own colors (for a multi-color print) or deleted (to get engraved numbers).
In the downloads there is a PrusaSlicer project, a 3mf file with my settings for a multicolor print (e.g. holder black, numbers white) with the MK3.5. When printing with the settings in this file, the filament must be changed manually twice for layers 1 and 2, starting with the color of the holder. This means that printing pauses and the printer prompts you to load a different filament.
For those who are not familiar with it: When changing filament, material is pushed out of the nozzle twice in the parking position after loading the new filament, immediately after loading and again after pressing OK. This 'poop' should be removed with tweezers or pliers, which can be a bit of a challenge, especially after the OK, as you only get a few seconds.
The settings in this file work, but are not perfect. During the second filament change, the extruder pushes the filament in and out a little strangely. And too much filament is extruded on the wipe tower, resulting in a bulge (which does not affect the print).
If you know which settings in the slicer should be changed so that this doesn't happen, please let me know in the comments.
Thank you very much!
Over the last few weeks, I have created a few CAD models that have helped me here and there or given me pleasure.
I have now uploaded some of them to Printables. If you are interested, please take a look at my designs.

The author remixed this model.
I copied parts of the look and the measurements from the original, but created my own CAD model from scratch
