Description
I needed a holder for the Alcohol Prep Pads that I've been getting from Walgreens that come as a pair of pads. This is designed to sit on a counter/desk/flat surface and hold most of a 400 pack of alcohol pads. My MK4S isn't tall enough to print a holder for all 400 pads. The shelf in the bottom is to provide space to pull a pair of pads off the bottom of the stack as well as hold the unused pad from the pair.
The FreeCAD file is parametric (using the Variable Set called "Parameters") allowing most of the geometry to be customized. This includes the maximum height to fit your printer, clearance around the prep pad pairs, X and Y size of the individual prep pads, width of the slot in the front, and several others.
This model is a prime option for remixing to add wall hanging options. Supports are probably not needed, but I did print with supports just to keep the arches clean.
