Wine Wizard is a bottle holder that casts a spell on your bottle. It has a design that bewitches your wine, making it appear to balance impossibly.

This model is a wine (or liquor) bottle holder that uses a clever trick to make your bottle appear to balance delicately in the air, creating a magical and mysterious effect. The holder is gently shaped to hold the bottle neck at just the right angle to put the center of mass over the base, creating a stable and balanced structure.

Wine Wizard works with most 750 mL bottles of wine or liquor, and can be printed in any color you like. There are a couple of large flat surfaces on which you can also emboss text with slicer tools to personalize it! Wine Wizard is a magical and mysterious way to enjoy your wine bottles. Tested to fit all the bottles shown in the last picture.

Shown here in white and black PLA.

Printing/technical notes:

I recommend printing at 0.2 mm layer thickness, with 6 top/bottom layers and at 4-5 walls for best results (you want this to be strong). Gyroid infill of 15% is fine. This model has been tested overnight with a full 750 mL bottle of wine for strength in PLA and PETG.

Note: In this model, the stress from the bottle neck sitting in the hole is actually concentrated mostly on the flat surfaces of the print, in addition to the hole itself and the fulcrum point of the hole, as shown here in a crude FEA analysis. Since the model is designed to be printed with these flat sides in the Z direction, and these surfaces bear the most stress, this is why 6 top/bottom layers is important for strength here in addition to a wall count of 4-5.
