Rotating stand for Eppendorf style micropipettes. Room for six. 

All parts are threaded for assembly. Bottom ring should be tightened to stop the shaft from wobbling but still allow the carousel to spin. Washers could also be added (20mm).

I printed with a 0.8mm nozzle and 0.30mm layer heights and 15% infill. Everything screwed together but it took some force. I would recommend using a smaller nozzle and lower layer heights for easier assembly and possibly adding infill to the bottom piece for weight/stability.

I oriented everything flat side down with supports on the build plate for the bottom piece. I found printing the top perpendicular with supports on the build plate helped cut down print time and material.

I ended up remodeling everything myself, but I was inspired by the design of the Rotating Pipette Holder by ML_SYD (https://www.thingiverse.com/thing:2487363).
