Stackable Vallejo Paint 17ml 18ml Dropper Bottle Storage Boxes

This is a tray for Vallejo 17ml and 18ml Dropper Bottle Paints and will hold 25 containers in a grid 5x5

At home, I have a range of modeling paints that I use and they are all roughly stored in a draw, when I bought a FDM printer I thought about these designs to create boxes to help store paints from different paint manufacturers that all fit together.

The idea was to create a universal tray for each type of paint that can be stored on top of each other.
The size of the tray has been designed to be 160mm x 160mm and will therefore fit on most FDM printers.
The lid has also been designed to be printed inverted so the build plate pattern will be on top of the lid enhancing to look.
The chequered effect on the base and the top of the lid also helps with reducing the chance of warping when printing.

The example in the pictures was printed on a Bambu Labs A1 FDM Printer (0.4mm Nozzle, 0.2mm layer height).
This design is best printed on an FDM printer

I have created several storage boxes for different paints and as I continue to do holders for manufacturers like Humbrol, RailMatch, Revel, Phoenix, etc I will add links below. Please drop me a message if I have missed anything that you would like me to add. All the holders from all the manufacturers will be designed to be stacked together in the same 160mm x 160mm box but with varying heights. All designs are tested before sharing online.

I recommend 3DLAC Spray to help secure the print to the print bed whilst printing, it also helps release the print after printing has finished.
