Built to match the form factor of the soldering iron holding base for a complete look.

Material, fill percent, and layer height are flexible.

The copy shown was printed in PETG with 0.35-mm layer height and 50% fill.

The holes as printed are slightly undersized since they are so close together to maximize the number it can hold. I use a Milwaukee metric step drill bit (4-mm to 12-mm in 1-mm increments, part number 48-89-9301) to clean up the holes for a perfect fit!

I removed the soft rubber feet from the bottom of my iron base and tapped out the existing holes in the base to M5X0.8-mm (no drilling required, Anchor Lube as tapping lubricant). I used two M5X20-mm button head stainless screws to hold the caddy to the base. The screws do not need to be that long, but I had them on hand. Clean out the lubricant and chips, reinstall the rubber feet and project completed!
