I designed a stand for my brushes, but sadly I lack access to any 3D-printer. In case someone wants a brush stand for two Omega brushes, feel free to print this stand and then give feedback so I am able to update the design. The stand can be found here: https://www.thingiverse.com/thing:4700503
Anyone with 3D-printer and Omega #48 or #49 brushes?

Neat design! I will print it and give you my feedback. My brush stand design is a simple one, but it cannot be wall-mounted, and I think yours can. And if it's wall-mounted, the base can be used as a mini shelf.

Thanks! Yes, with some double sided tape it could be wall mounted.

It is something you normally also find in my country, but I live in the country side and the small library we have here does not have a 3D printer.Local Library should have a 3D printer if you're in the US

I am curious if you did print it? It is supposed to grip the middle of the handle.
Hi there, Sorry for the slow reply. I'm back in town and will start printing this evening. It's an eleven hour long print, so, I will report back in a day or two. I'll try it on my Stirling Boar as a wall-mount.
That is a very nice looking design my friend!
Very nice!
Well, it took me a while, but here it is. The brush stand works perfectly. It has the perfect thickness for 3d printing and the handle opening should accommodate most large brushes. The ideal orientation for printing is on its back. this way you don't need supports when printing. It works great as a free-standing brush stand, but it can also be wall-mounted with command strips or the like.

Thank you for testing it! Do you also happen to have an Omega #48 or #49 brush? I am curious of how it fits this brush.
I don't, but Google search results indicate a handle waist of 36mm

When I measured mine it is 35.3mm. I made the stand to be 35.5mm, so it is a pretty tight fit and this is why I am curious of how it succeeded.
It's hard to find the perfect brush stand. That's why I designed this one.
It accommodates all my brushes. It is also incorporated into my lather bowl design.

this is awesome, I see some 3d printed razors as well correct me if I'm wrong, that's bad ***.
I don't want to hijack this @engblom thread, but yes, it's a 3d printed razor. Some of my designs are available for download on Thingiverse. Thingiverse - Digital Designs for Physical Objects - https://www.thingiverse.com/rogerquin/designs
