This is a tiny wall mounted toothbrush holder. It is inspired by dezbot's original design (visible in the background of the photos). I found after several months, the tines dezbot's would tend to fatigue, delaminate and break off from the back plate.
This holder is structured so that that it can be printed vertically and thus the tines aren't susceptible to breaking along layer boundaries. I believe this design will last significantly longer. While I haven't tried PLA, I suspect ABS is the superior material for this part since it tends to be more flexible.
**Update:** I had problems with the tines fatiguing, even with the new print orientation. At its narrowest point, each tine had only 2 widths of plastic on my Printrbot. I've made them much wider so that they now have 4 + some fill.
