Vial holder for stirring multiple vials on lab stirrer/hotplate

This was migrated from my Thingiverse profile and is from 2016.

A more elegant solution to magnetic stirring multiple vials on a stirrer/hotplate than bunching them together using elastic bands. It goes without saying that this is for stirring only, heating not recommended.

*Edit the relevant .SCAD files to choose what to display/print (e.g.main plate, or some of the adaptors only.)***

These plates and adaptors will fit the vials pictured. No guarantee other sizes vials will be held in place reliably. Feel free to edit adapter sizes in the .SCAD source or design your own (hint: they're hollow cylinders).

The main plate will fit the stirrer/hotplates pictured (IKA RCT basic), no guarantee it will fit others. If yours has a circular top, you can edit the required diameter in the .SCAD source code.
