Two new items from Asunarow, to keep in place glue bottles and instructions.
The stand for instructions can hold also other items, and can be coupled to other products from Asunarow.

The glue stand is intended for Tamiya bottles, which can be hold levelled or inclined.

Geez, now we have laser-cut wood origami...the glue bottle stands seem useful but the instruction sheet stand is completely unnecessary as far as I'm concerned.

I’d put a caveat on this comment— because at first, this is exactly how I felt about both these products. That is, until I realized that I’ve frequently wished I had a method for displaying an instruction sheet upright on my workbench— so much so that I have installed a runner with small “curtain clips” that slide along it to clip a “hanging” instruction sheet to. That way, I’m not fumbling with a set of papers taking up space on the workbench. So, I think there is indeed a place for the instruction sheet holder, as long as the price is reasonable. As for the glue holder, again, I think it’s completely useless— if you use it just to hold the square Tamiya bottles upright. BUT, it’s absolutely brilliant in the angled configuration. I don’t know how many times I’ve tried to get the brush down into the bottle (yes, I know the brush is positionable) but I’ve often resorted to tilting the bottle just to get the max amount of glue on the brush. Sometimes this has disastrous consequences. I’ve even resorted to laying the bottle on its side, just to get the “dregs” out of the bottle. This nifty stand will eliminate the problem— but again, only if the price is right. VR, Russ

What happens when the assembly requires viewing two pages at the same time? Or when I sneeze and blow the whole contraption over? I attached clips to the wall/shelf behind the work desk and now I can have the whole instruction sheet unfolded.

Sneezing would definitely be a problem, but if I recall correctly, that Type 1 instruction sheet pictured is an A4 sheet, and there is a photo of it unfolded double wide. I suppose a stiff piece of cardboard behind it would suffice to keep it up. As I said before, I’d only buy this if “the price was right”. Before I had my current system of hanging sheets from rails and curtain clips, I used a clear plexiglass cook book holder, with the instruction sheet clipped to it on the back. I like to keep my sheets pristine, in case someone I know needs one after I’ve used it. VR, Russ

That's a pretty neat idea with the instruction stand.

Interesting idea but my take on the instructions stand cost me £5.38 including delivery. LINK plus LINK

I made it one simpler by simply installing cork tile, available in one square foot pieces, to the back wall of my work bench and using tacks. That being said I still greatly prefer to hold it, and if space is at a premium I open the middle desk drawer and drape the instruction sheet there until needed. To each his own; I simply don't want another fidgety item cluttering my work space. Regardless of price.
