You probably want to customize this design before printing.

The STLs fit WMF-brand metal straws (180mm long, 8mm outside diameter) in an 80mm tall drawer.

Customization

Print Instructions

Print orientation: rotate it so the pins for each straw point upward enough that they can be printed without supports, and use paint-on supports for the bottom area.

With PLA, warping can become an issue. I printed a single 6-straw version and the warping led to the straws pointing in all sorts of directions. Printing two 3-straw versions worked better. (For the spacing between the straws, 1x6 vs. 2x3 also makes no difference.)
