Printed a set of these using PETG on my A1. They came out nicely. Once hung, these can showcase some of the smaller figurines and other show prints.

Nice, but a bit large for my printer - at least the Monoprice. If I shrink it down in my slicer, it would only be about 150mm, a bit under 6".

Ironically, to me it seems small, at under 256x256mm. But I thought, it will work for the smaller prints I made. Benchy, little bunny rabbit, etc over the years.

Yes, that would do.

A long time ago, I had a wooden frame that had originally been used to store the lead movable type for a printing press. This board was about three feet by about two feet. We had it hung on a wall, and my wife put little nick-knacks in it.

This is kind of similar to the one that I had:

I'm all about repurposing things. The white stand in the following photo (top center-right) holding my test leads was originally the stand for some plastic cooking utensils that were in a drawer, and therefore the stand was not being used. The white "shelves" are shoe racks.

Nice, pretty handy there.

I think that photo was from when I was in ID. I can't remember. I no longer have that stand, but it was nice for hanging test leads from.

It does look like a good fit for hanging your probe leads. I still need to get something together for my leads.

Actually, I need to get rid of much of my stuff - it's just that when I do a little work (we are helping our eldest son pack to move to a new house,) I feel so exhausted that it's difficult to do the little bit left to sell the stuff.

I have a much better way of organizing cables right now. However, I don't have a photo of it yet. I will post one soon. Until then, here's a better photo of the other stand I had for my shorter clip leads.

I understand.
