My wife loves her CricutMaker, so in the past I designed a 6 accessory holder that fits in a shallow drawer (https://www.thingiverse.com/thing:3798887). Since then, Cricut came out with Foil Transfer accessories, so I needed to add a place for those in the design. My wife also got another cutting accessory, so I increased it to 7 accessories.
While doing this, I realized my initial design wasn't easily modified, so this new Fusion360 design is easier to change the number of main accessories with a single parameter.
I've uploaded design files for her design, plus generic models for the single accessory holder and the foil transfer gizmo for folks to use as a building block for their own holders -- basically I draw blocks and "subtract out" these generic models from where I want the accessories to fit.
The design is very simple to print -- if printed bottom-side down, any resolution should work with no rafts or supports, with whatever infill you'd like. I printed with 0.2mm resolution, 15% infill.
Folks have asked if they can sell prints of the earlier design. That is fine with me (that design and this one), as long as you give me some attribution, as called out in the Attribution-ShareAlike license this is posted under. I'd love it if you'd drop me a note, too, as it makes me happy when other people build my designs.

I printed mine with 0.15mm resolution with a 0.4mm head, but it could definitely be printed with faster, lower resolution settings.
How I Designed This ===================Designed in Fusion360. I used a micrometer to measure the various accessories, and created generic models for them, with a bit of margin on the outside.
Then I draw a box, place the generic model into the box where I want the recess to be, and subtract it out.
There's a parameter in the Fusion360 design that should allow addition or reduction of the main accessories (currently 7), but I haven't tested it thoroughly yet, to be honest.
I've uploaded the design files for the whole thing, plus models for the generic accessory and the generic foil transfer, in Fusion360 and STEP formats. Feel free to use these to make your own stuff (I'd love to hear about it, if you do)!
