Rack to hold wide pliers-like tools on edge (angled 60 degrees) to save space but accommodate shallow drawers.  The tools pictured reach up to 3 inches from the bottom of the rack, so they fit in a 4 inch drawer with no interference.  Three slots are sized 30 mm wide (intended for my straight/right/left set of Columbia/Wilton aviation snips) and two are 24 mm wide (intended for my Husky tubing cutter and unknown brand Miter Shears).  Also included is a 1x2 block to hold the additional miter shear anvils and wrench.  Both models were designed in Autodesk Fusion, using the Gridfinity plugin for bottom geometry.

I printed in PETG in draft mode (0.3 mm layer height) with adaptive layer height and set 4 perimeters.  4 perimeters was probably excessive for the 5 mm thick partitions, but I didn't want them to snap with rough handling.  It seems so sturdy I could probably stand on it.  While the rack is only 4 units deep, the tool handles stick out another approx 2 units, so it fits in my ~10 inch deep craftsman tool cart top section's 4 inch tall drawers as shown.
