Lid Stack Hanger

A simple design but so effective at getting those pot lids organized.

Simply screw it to your wall or cabinet and hang pot lids in it. The lids must have an inside edge like glass lids typically do. Some metal lids do and some don’t – so be sure to check out your lids before printing this.

The Lid Hanger is very strong and will easily handle the weight of 4 lids. I would be happy to make it in other sizes if anyone wants it bigger or smaller.

Hanging and removing lids in the hanger is very easy but does require you to slow down a little so that you do not knock off other lids as you insert or remove a lid.

Where to Get My STL Files

Thangs.com

I am now posting all of my new designs on Thangs.com and plan to continue to do so for the foreseeable future. Some of my older designs may not have been migrated over yet so if they are not available on Thangs.com please check on Thingiverse.

Use, Licensing, Comments and Feedback

My primary distribution site for my design files is Thangs.com. Thangs.com is, in my opinion, leading the way in promoting designers and competition amongst designers which in turn fuels the growth of high-quality 3d printable designs for the benefit of our entire community. However, as a result, some of my designs are only available for free for 1 week from when first posted, so please download them when you see a new file available that you are interested in. Also, please like and save to help me with the competitions.

I do not permit the use of my designs for commercial purposes (i.e. you can not sell my design(s) or products printed from my design(s)) without first acquiring a commercial license from me. On Thangs.com I offer membership accounts for access to all my design files as well as a membership for commercial licensing which allows subscribers to sell printed products using my designs.

I welcome comments and feedback as we as requests for customization of designs. I will do my best to accommodate those requests.

    Suggestion: Create something similar to this to hold drink tumbler lids. Currently prints I see for tumbler lids are either shelves, or (what I’m using and not loving) a straight piece that the lids feed through the holes on … but after a few the weight makes it start to droop. Additionally if I want to hang multiple sizes it means multiple rods or pulling multiple lids off and on.
