hand soap drainer tray

I use the hand soap in my kitchen a lot, and water got trapped underneath it.  I didn't like that, so I wanted to—as Cliff says—Fix It!  so I made this stand.

the insides are angled so that the water can drip out, and there is a lip that extends below the bottom of the feet, so that it will not slide away from the sink and drip water where it's not supposed to be.

soap bottle size / tray footprint

I gave away my test print, this evening, so I can't make a realistic measurement right now.  a 70mm x 70mm bottle should fit; my hand soap is a bit smaller than that.  I'll update this in a few hours.

printing

this model will print without supports if it prints on its back.  in an earlier version, the drainage lip didn't print properly, so I scaled it back from 30° to 35°.

next steps

I'm not 100% satisfied with this version, although I like it much better than earlier versions.  I also have a bottle of dish soap next to my hand soap, and water's definitely getting trapped under that one too.

so, now that I have a more complete idea of what I wanted, and a prototype I'm using every day, I'm going to work towards redoing this model from scratch.  I want to make a more robust, more parametric version of this, so that I can easily include multiple sizes.

so, please look out for a v3, and if you need a particular size, please let me know.

remixes?

as always, I've included STEP files if anyone wants to make a remix.
