These pipet tip box shelves have become extremely popular throughout our department. Lab rats love that they keep the hood organized and free up surface, and safety inspectors love that they improve laminar flow by moving tips away from vents at the back of the hood.
We have a few variants which differ based on some aesthetic elements and some slight dimensional differences because different companies boxes are sized differently, but most are close enough. If need be, scale them in your slicer before printing.
When they're finished, mount them in the hood using 3M command strips. Scour your surface clean with ethanol, acetone, and a scouring pad for best results, and use at least four strips. These have fallen down when improperly attached, but if properly secured will stay attached.
Lastly, credit to Michael Ramos for conceiving of the original idea.
