\"Oral-B<\/p>\n

3 kids, 1 electric toothbrush and a small bathroom.\u00a0 That is a recipe for disaster.\u00a0 Let me start by telling you how much I dislike pedestal sinks or any bathroom sink without ample counter space.\u00a0 with 3 kids sharing a bathroom and then constantly knocking the heads off the counter and often into the toilet I know I had to come up with a solution before I spent a fortune on brush heads<\/a>!<\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

My Robo R2<\/a>, and Fusion 360<\/a> to the rescue!<\/p>\n

Using my digital calipers<\/a> I measured the width of the base of the brush heads, gave myself a mm of padding around that, then<\/p>\n

some more space for the walls of the holder, pulled it up to the height I wanted, drew a hole and then used the Pattern tool to replicate 6 holes total before cutting them down far enough that they would not fall out on their own.\u00a0 I added some wings to the sides to hold the suction cups<\/a> (getting great use out of these<\/a>!) and then printed it all in black PETG<\/a> I had (didn’t need the thermal stability on these, but the structural strength works well with the suction cup clips.<\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

An hour or so to print and I was able to snap in the suction cups and stick \\it to the mirror.\u00a0 Not a single dropped toothbrush head since!<\/p>\n
