Ender Attached Tool Holder
Description
I originally had printed [a stand](https://www.thingiverse.com/thing:5725919/) for holding tools and it worked well, but I realized that it only held like two things I routinely used, and with new tools nothing really fit very well any more. So I used that one as loose inspiration and made on that *does* hold the tools I use. Mounts in to the v-slots on the left side of an Ender 3 and anything else that uses a 2040/4040 rail (probably). First I measured and modeled out all the tools I wanted to put in it. Included are: * [Amervault Scrapers](https://www.amazon.com/dp/B075SLTY8B) * Four of the [Bovulo Hobby Knives](https://www.amazon.com/dp/B0B5ZMLV36) (there are *many* clones of these!)</li> * [AFA Deburring Tool](https://www.amazon.com/dp/B08SLFVVXF) * A Bic Mini Lighter</li> * Two declogging needles</li> * Two old poking needles in hobby knife bodies</li> * One or two hangers for snippers</li></ul> With all those things measured and such, I made holes with a little clearance (+3mm⌀ on the smaller tools and +4mm⌀ on the larger) and rotated them 15° so they'll set in the slot and hopefully not fall out. I expect a little wiggle, but for everything to stay in place as well. Print it on it's back and use support blockers to prevent supports from being built in the long channels. I let them be built in the openings at the top since there's some significant overhang (see images attached). Print one or two of the hangers in their existing orientation and glue them in. Hanger hole is 5.4mm square and 3mm deep if you want to make your own hanger for something else. ~~I might make some pegs to hold my spool clips, come to think of it...~~ I have no idea if it'll work but now there's a clip hanger too. 4mm rods to hold some of [these](https://www.printables.com/model/24371-grandmas-favorite-filament-clip). There are two versions of the body, a compact and an extended. The extended leaves plenty of room to hang two snippers without worrying about hitting the print bed, the compact pulls it in by about 20mm and you _could_ hang something there, but it'd be close to your print head / print bed, so to test fits before you glue anything in on that side! There's a silly little FDM logo that you can color swap on layer 350 if you want. There are also indentions on the sides labeling what blades are in what hole, if you don't want those markings you can cover them up in TinkerCAD or something real easy.
