Tattoo Pen & Ink Cap Stand
Clean. Stable. Everything exactly where you need it.

This compact tattoo workstation was designed to solve a very simple problem: where do you safely put your tattoo pen while working, especially when there is still ink on the cartridge?

Instead of balancing the machine on the table, laying it on disposable covers, or keeping separate ink-cap holders around the workspace, this stand brings everything together in one compact 3D-printed unit.

Designed Around the Tattoo Pen
The main cradle has an approximately 50 mm internal diameter, designed around tattoo pens with a grip diameter of approximately 45 mm, including my Poseidon wireless tattoo pen.

The curved cradle supports the large grip section securely while keeping the machine at a comfortable working angle.

More importantly, the lower opening of the cradle is positioned exactly where the needle cartridge connects to the pen.

This allows the cartridge and needle tip to remain completely unobstructed while the machine rests securely in the stand.

Pick it up. Work. Put it back.

No balancing act required.

Integrated 25 mm Drip Cup
Directly underneath the needle is a 25 mm diameter central cup.

Its job is simple: if residual ink drips from the cartridge while the pen is resting, it falls into the cup instead of onto your desk or work surface.

Because the needle naturally points toward the center of the cup when the pen is correctly seated, no additional adjustment is necessary.

A small detail, but exactly the kind of detail that makes a workstation nicer to use.

Three Integrated Ink Cap Holders
At the front of the base are three 14 mm diameter holders for standard tattoo ink caps.

This keeps your working colors immediately next to the machine instead of requiring a separate ink-cap stand.

The three holders are arranged around the central drip cup while leaving enough room to access each cap comfortably.

So in one small footprint you have:

A secure tattoo pen cradle
3 × 14 mm ink-cap holders
A 25 mm central drip cup
A stable base keeping everything together
Compact & Stable
The wide rounded base gives the stand a low center of gravity and good stability, even with a relatively heavy wireless tattoo machine resting at an angle.

At the same time, the footprint remains compact enough to sit comfortably beside the rest of your tattoo equipment.

No moving parts.

No assembly.

No unnecessary complexity.

Just one functional print.

Designed for Easy 3D Printing
The stand was designed to print as a single piece.

Under normal conditions, supports should not be necessary.

If your printer or slicer struggles with the steeper areas around the cradle, I recommend:

Tree Support: Auto
On Build Plate Only: Enabled

This provides additional insurance without filling the inside of the cradle with unnecessary support material.

A 0.16–0.20 mm layer height is a good starting point.

PLA or PETG should both work well, although PETG may be preferable if you want a little more impact and chemical resistance around the workspace.

Why I Designed It
I wanted the tattoo pen, working ink colors and potential ink drips to have one defined place on the desk.

The result is a small workstation rather than just another pen holder.

The machine rests naturally, the cartridge remains free, the needle sits above its own drip cup, and three ink caps stay immediately within reach.

Simple geometry doing several jobs at once.

And that is exactly the kind of thing I love 3D printing for.

Print it. Load your colors. Focus on the art.
