This toothbrush holder may not be as exciting or complicated an item as many of the items I have seen on Thingiverse, but I like it for what it showed about the usefulness of 3D printers in our family's everyday lives.
My mother-in-law emailed me, one day early this year, about the upcoming surgery on her hand. She was going to be without the use of her right hand for several weeks and was wondering if I could print some sort of thing that would hold her toothbrush so that she "could squirt toothpaste on the toothbrush without it falling over". She had been practicing and it "falls over all the time".
An hour later I had a holder for her to use.
From request to idea to prototype to usable item in an hour. An extremely simple item, but it made a big difference in her life. One more person sold on the usefulness of 3D printers.
