Banana Loungers

thingiverse

Banana Loungers are a fantastic way to store your bananas! If these were sold commercially in trendy stores, people would pay top dollar for something so unique and novel. They're fun and practical to use at home, making them an excellent gift idea. When you have several Banana Loungers, your bananas will no longer be content to sit in a crowded fruit bowl - this design effectively alleviates crowding and overcomes bruised bananas. Separating your bananas from their bunch reportedly makes them last longer too! Banana Loungers are easy prints in PLA with no support needed as long as your machine has an effective filament fan to handle the angles and bridging required. ABS may be a bit more challenging, so automated support might be necessary. Print a few Banana Loungers in your choice of colors - they're sure to be a real conversation starter when guests see them! Please refer to the print settings and images for additional information. If you like this design, check out the rest of my fun and practical designs.
