K40 Paint Rack
I recently started painting sla printed miniatures. Soon a lot of 25mm paint flasks crowded my workspace. So I was in need of some paint rack. I searched thingiverse but found none that appeals to me and whose parts will fit in my K40 Laser.

So I started constructing my own rack. I can fit a DINA4 sheet in my laser cutter. So no part should exceed 210x297mm (roughly 8.3x11.7 inches). I was able to fit all parts in five DINA4 sheets.
Sadly later I discovered that the cutting area is little bit smaller due to a unoptimized bed. At 295mm length I can only use 45% of the height. Furthermore the cutting area is centered around the middle of the sheet. So even if I would get the parts to fit the smaller area there would have been a lot of wasted wood.
In the end I rearranged the parts so that they fit in a 105x295mm area and precut the DINA4 sheets in half. Two of the sheets fit in the 45% height DINA4 so I did not change them.
My next goal was that the flasks are hol
