I spent a couple hours learning FreeCAD and designed this pen holder for my spouse. They were super happy with it. ~~If people want I can provide the CAD and STL files.~~

Nice! The first design is always a big step!

Are you having space for magnets in there?

If you'd like I'd suggest to put the files in printables.com, that way everyone can profit and remix your designs!

Yep. I have some 18mm neodymium magnets so I made four little pockets for in the back and hot glued them in.
