I threw this together to introduce some order to my favorite, and most-used writing utensils. 

It's designed to hold four Sharpies, a pencil (Palomino Golden Bear), a Sharpie highlighter, a Sharpie gel pen, and a Lamy Safari. The holes are shaped to signal which item goes where, but allow enough clearance that they could fit something else similarly sized if needed. 

In order to avoid tipping over, I added some weight towards the bottom - in PrusaSlicer, I used the ‘Height Range Modifier’ to set the first 10mm to 50% infill, and then the remaining layers to 10%. This seems to have worked, and the rack feels much less top-heavy than I had expected. The piece is printed in Bambu Labs marble PLA.

I'm hoping to have this as part of a larger ‘system’ of organization for my desk at work, with plans to make spaces for my other most-used things - including a small pad of paper, scissors, tape, a stapler, a few self-inking stamps, post-it notes,  business cards, earbuds, wallet, and keys. I also have some tweaks I think I'll make to this particular model as I iterate on it to get things just how I want, but for now you can find the model in OnShape here.
