Description I wanted a carboy drainer that was 3d printable (because why not?). They're stackable, too.

Looks nice, but please be careful. Stacking big glass containers like this seems like asking for trouble…

Check out some of the references! They were so flimsy.

I think he's saying the dryer pieces themselves are stackable for storage when not in use, not that you should stack multiple carboys on top of each other using them.
