Description
This is a free-standing, 16 roll holder for wrapping paper. It fits rolls up to 55mm in diameter.
Â
 It is two plates and prints in just under 8 hours. Both plates come to just 188 grams of filament. Prints great in just basic PLA. I printed mine in purple just because I had some extra lying around but could obviously be printed in any color you like.
Â
Wood Dowels:
Â
It requires 4 wood dowels to connect the top and bottom pieces. Some users have also used segments of PVC pipe. Cut them to whatever height you want the holder to be. In my print, I cut my 16mm wood dowels to 22" long as that seemed to work well for the rolls of wrapping paper that I had. There are print profiles for each of the following dowel diameters:
Â
Requests for modifications:
Â
If people would be interested in a 9-hole holder for larger diameter rolls, I could pretty easily modify the model to accommodate larger rolls. Or, if someone needs a variation for other diameter dowels, I could make variations for that as well, just comment and I'll do my best.Â

Acknowledgements:
This design was heavily influenced by this print by PLAUK which I thought was really good, but unfortunately requires almost 700 grams of filament, which was too much for my budget. So I took his general approach and created my own version that required roughly 25% as much filament.Â
