This 3D-printable stand is designed to hold a group of microscope slides together in an organized manner while also allowing easy handling of individual samples. Each slide slides into its own slot, where it holds securely but can be easily removed. The goal is to maintain order and clarity among the samples. The holder includes a tray for microscope slides (76 × 26 mm).

The model is the result of gradual development and several prototypes, during which every detail was refined. Its creation took dozens of hours of work.

The goal was to create a practical tool for storing microscope slides during lab work – especially in situations where samples need to be reused repeatedly. At the same time, the model was designed to be easy to print and simple to assemble.

Assembly Instructions

1. Snap the positioning locks into the corresponding holes.

2. Insert the gears through the column and attach the bar from the opposite side.

3. Insert the other end of the bar into the second column. Make sure it is properly oriented. Firmly insert both columns into the holes in the base.

4. Secure both columns from above using the bridge. For a stronger connection, glue can be used.

5. Snap the clip into place and that’s it.

Tip 1: Print the clips in different colors as a way to visually separate the samples.

Tip 2: You can use the surface of the clip to make a mark with a marker or number it. A simple way to distinguish between samples.
