I think my calipers is the best and most useful tools I have. I use it very often and when I do, I'll take it and put it back often when I measure things. I've been thinking about making a stand for a long time, so today it finally happened! (Released 2025-01-04) And to be honest, I’m very satisfied with the result.

The Quick Access Caliper Stand - QACS, is my 100% own design. When I did the design, it was a must to get the correct grip directly without change position of my hand after I grab the caliper. With this stand I get the correct grip directly.

There are four different print profiles for 150mm, 200mm and 300mm calipers:

- QACS - Quick Access Caliper Stand for 150mm calipers - A1 Mini version, 150mm calipers (shorter than the original) - QACS for 200mm calipers - QACS for 300mm calipers (two parts) This caliper stand is designed to fit all common calipers on the market.

So far, I haven’t received any feedback indicating that a caliper does not fit.

Original QACS

Length: 210mm Depth: 52mm Height: 57mm

(All measurements without caliper)

QACS - A1 Mini version

Length: 170mm Depth: 52mm Height: 57mm

(All measurements without caliper)

QACS - For 200mm

Updated 2025-09-26

Now, measurements is for the 200mm Mitutoyo caliper.

(Before it was made after 150mm calipers measurements but just longer)

Also there is two small storage compartments at the back.

Length: 230mm Depth: 52mm Height: 57mm

(All measurements without caliper)

QACS - For 300mm / 12in long calipers

( designers  print profile : QACS - Quick Access Caliper Stand - For 300mm long calipers)

Measurements is for the two parts joined.

Length: 320mm Depth: 60mm Height: 72mm

(All measurements without caliper)

Please don't lift the stand with the caliper in the stand, the joint can broke.

I recommend gluing the parts together if the stand will be moved a lot. The glue 'Loctite All Plastics' is really good.

If you found this design useful, I’d really appreciate a rating, a photo of your finished

print, or a Boost. Every bit of support helps me create more practical designs!
