Model Paint Dropper Bottle Tray (Vallejo etc)

A tray for holding model paint dropper bottles, like Vallejo Game Colors, at a 45° angle so they can be stored in drawers, while still being easily viewed. Designed to fit in common shop drawers, like Husky etc. Most drawers should be tall enough though.

Holds 9 bottles, the max width to be easily printed on most print beds.

No supports necessary, but I do recommend a brim or some mouse ears since there isn't a ton of surface area for bed adhesion. Designed for minimal filament use.

There is space for two 6mm disc magnets in the base, press fit, so if you put this in a steel shop drawer they'll help it not slide. Totally optional, but there if you want it. The small hole in the magnet depression is for poking something in to pop them out if you ever want to.

Behind each bottle is a small rectangular depression, that you can use to swatch in a blob of paint. That way you can quickly see the actual paint color when you pick up the bottle, and also use it as a reference when putting it back.

I printed mine in matte white PLA to make that swatching easier.

Edit, Jan 9th 2025 — I've added a file for a single unit of the tray. You can use these to fill out any extra horizontal space you need. Two trays of 9 and a single tray of 1 should fill a Husky drawer nice and snug.
