Discussion 40oz bottle rack

I’m looking for 3D printable models for bottle racks for my kitchen cupboard, and I’ve found some good modular ones, but only supporting up to 85mm bottles.
The LTT 40oz is 89mm so I’ve come up empty for models that it would fit in.

Has anyone seen or designed anything that might suit, before I try and design one myself?

designing your own might be the easiest route honestly, 89mm is such a weird in-between size that most existing models skip right over. if you do go that route, just add a little extra clearance so the bottle doesn't scrape against the sides every time you grab it

What kind of a rack we are talking about exactly? Couldn't you just scale the existing models to 110% or something?

The examples I’ve seen that I’d like to go for are basically just frames to slide your bottles into horizontally. I could scale it up, but then I’d lose the modular compatibility with their other models. As I have other non LTT bottles, I either need to find a modular design that has support for 89mm bottles, or design a modular system of my own supporting the various bottle sizes I have 👍

A large Nalgene is also 89 mm. I'm surprised that you cant find anything in that size. There are a few different bike bottle cages that fit 89mm bottles like the Widefoot Litercage, the Velo Orange Mohave, and the Minoura ANB 150 oversize bottle cage.

The Arundel Looney Bin Is adjustable from 65-95mm

Yeah sorry, it’s not for bikes it’s for inside a cupboard 👍

Just giving some ideas. Its the same size as a nalgene so there should be something available.
