About the Glue Gun and Craft Knife Stand

A tidy stand for the craft desk: a cradle the glue gun’s nozzle rests in, a dish under it to catch drips, holes for craft knives and pens, and a little box for spare blades and glue sticks. Sized for a mini or a full-size gun.

Glue Gun and Craft Knife Stand: a customisable 3D print, shown at its starting settings

What you can change

  • Glue gun: mini and full size.
  • Pick its colour.
  • Adjust knife and pen holes and knife hole size.
  • Turn on or off: box for blades and glue sticks.

What you download

An STL or 3MF for any slicer.

Printing it

Prints flat with no supports. PLA softens near a hot nozzle: the dish keeps the tip clear of the plastic, but for a full-size gun, PETG or ASA is the safer choice.

Ideas for using it

  • A safe place to rest a hot glue gun.
  • Keeping craft knives upright and out of the way.
  • A gift for a crafter’s new desk.

Questions

Will a hot nozzle melt it?

The nozzle rests over the dish, clear of the plastic. For a full-size gun, PETG or ASA is safer than PLA.

Which printers and slicers does it work with?

Any FDM printer. The STL opens in every slicer; the 3MF keeps the colours as separate parts in Bambu Studio, Orca Slicer, PrusaSlicer and Cura. Pick your printer in the designer to check it fits the plate.

Can I sell what I make?

On Pro and Ultimate you can sell the prints you make, for example on Etsy or at craft fairs, for as long as your membership is active: if it ends, stop selling them. On Free and Maker, print it for yourself or give it as a gift. The STL and 3MF files themselves are never for sharing or selling.
