I designed the Under Desk Pencil Holder to save desk space while keeping pencils, pens, and tools easily accessible.
The holder can be removed from its housing and placed on your desk whenever you need your tools close by. You can also create different interchangeable inserts for different layouts and purposes, such as pencils, pens, pliers, or other small tools.
Design
I designed the Under Desk Pencil Holder to take up no desktop space while keeping it practical and easy to use. The holder is angled at 10 degrees, which helps prevent pencils, pens, and other items from sliding out when it is mounted underneath the desk.
The Pencil Holder and Pencil Holder Housing have matching angled surfaces, allowing the holder to slide smoothly into the housing while keeping it securely in place. The holder can also be removed whenever you need to use your tools directly on your desk.
For the appearance, I wanted to keep the design simple, clean, and minimal. I avoided unnecessary features and used only the surfaces needed to make the holder strong and functional. The removable holder also allows you to create different interchangeable inserts, making it possible to adapt the design to whatever you want to store.
Installation
After printing, remove any custom brims from both the Pencil Holder Housing and Pencil Holder.
On the underside of your desk, draw a straight line perpendicular to the desk edge. This line will mark the center position of the housing.
Position the Pencil Holder Housing underneath the desk and align the two center-line holes with the line you drew. This ensures that the housing is perpendicular to the edge of the desk.
While keeping the housing aligned, position it as far from the desk edge as you want it to be.
Hold the housing in position and secure it to the underside of the desk using 4 wood screws with a shaft diameter smaller than 4 mm. The screw heads should be larger than 4 mm.
Once the housing is securely mounted, slide the Pencil Holder into the housing until it is fully seated.
That's it! Your Under Desk Pencil Holder is ready to use. You can remove the Pencil Holder from the housing whenever you want to use it directly on your desk.
Files
The download includes print-ready STL files for both the Pencil Holder Housing and Pencil Holder. These files are already oriented and optimized for printing.
I have also included full STL and STEP files of the design for anyone who wants to customize the model or create their own interchangeable inserts.
