This paint rack doubles as a carrying case for up to 64 bottles of 17ml model paints (that's Vallejo, Scale75, AK, etc). You will need to print both the case box and the face plate to use it as a paint rack, then add the lid if you want to use it for transporting your paints. The lid has a 0.6mm clearance from the case which makes it a gentle friction fit (on my printer). The face plate is removable, but you can glue it in place if you feel the need.
I have printed the model with a 0.4mm nozzle, 0.2mm layer height, 3 perimeters and 3 layers top and bottom. This makes it sturdy enough to hold 64 full bottles of paint without a problem. Other nozzle sizes and layer heights will probably work just as well, but bear in mind that the walls have been designed at 2.4mm thickness so going for a whole number of nozzle widths is most efficient.
As long as you print the face plate with the flat surface downwards no supports are needed for any of the parts.
