Bottle Brush - Customizable

You'll print individual layers and attach them to your handle. I used a bamboo skewer for mine, but you can also print a custom central post that includes a key feature to space out adjacent bristle layers evenly. I've included many parameters so you can adjust the stiffness of the bristles and spacing to your liking. You don't have to print the center part if you don't want to - just see the photos of the brush parts attached to a bamboo skewer for reference. The central post was an added feature I thought of when worrying about layer spacing. Make sure your bed is perfectly level and handle with care when removing the parts, especially those with thin bristles. For thin, flexible bristles, use: //bristle width=2 x Nozzle size, and //bristle height= 1st layer height. Increase these values for stiffer bristles. If you're creating a staggered bristle brush, use the key setting under central post. Note that the bristle parts have notches in the center support corresponding to the part number - the first part has one notch, the second part has two notches, and so on. I also chose to print my layers in different colors to help keep track of them.
