Updated description with results after finishing!

I wanted a specific lightsaber holder so I made it. Little rough, but it works. Designed for a light-diffusing sheet of plastic and fairy or LED lights in the back for the lit-grate pattern so often associated with Star Wars. Mounts on wall, and holds several lightsabers by their Covertech knob (more info below)

4 Saber: Holds 4 lightsabers, 138.37 mm wide (5.45 in), 154.15 mm tall (6.07 in)
6 Saber: Holds 6 lightsabers, 205.232 mm wide (8.08 in), 154.15 mm tall (6.07 in)
9 Saber: Holds 9 lightsabers, 307.848 mm wide (12.12 in), 154.15 mm tall (6.07 in)
All are 20.70 mm (0.8 in) thick with a 7.7699997 mm (0.31 in) gap for a light-diffusion sheet and fairy/LED lights behind for the effect.

Lightsabers are held via a Covertech knob, using this model for the holder in the design: https://www.thingiverse.com/thing:4140518

Tree supports are needed! Also, use a brim or raft (I suggest raft after the results I got, look in the next paragraph. See images for my suggested raft settings, they are based on ItsBoyInSpace's settings he posted on TikTok). Print it as it is in the file (vertical) for best results (you should be able to flip it upright if you'd like; I printed it upside-down), printing it horizontally led to some issues with adhesion for me. I used 3 walls and 20% gyroid infill, with good results!

I did have a small issue with adhesion (brim peeled up on both sides of the model), but it only affected the corners (see images). This issue led to the bottom screw holes being squished, so screwing it into the wall will no longer be an option. It may have also led to some other minor issues, but I don't see them. A raft would help to avoid that, so I recommend a raft! I also had a random error (NOT DUE TO THE MODEL! IT WAS PRINTER RELATED!) that caused a weak spot, so it did break resulting in the line you see in the finished product; I think the printer had a minor clog, as it only printed some of the tree support (fine lines that were enough for it to keep building), as well as the innermost wall and infill on the model. Overall, however, the print turned out great! I scale up Covertech prints by 1% (personal preference) and got smooth-gliding results, so the files are updated to meet this!
