BRB Coffee Coaster / Thermo Lid

thingiverse

We've all been stuck in that situation - arriving at the office with a fresh cup of coffee and then having to leave our desk for a little while. By the time we return, after maybe one too many rounds of Clash of Clans in the restroom, the coffee has turned cold. This innovative coaster/thermo lid solves this problem. You can use it as a coaster to protect your desk from unwanted coffee rings and when you need to leave, simply place it on top of your cup. It sends a clear message to your colleagues that all hope is not lost yet. The coaster is intentionally designed to be pretty thick (with a 4 mm base), which, when printed with low infill (such as 10%), creates a nice air pocket for better insulation. This helps fight against the forces of entropy that always seem to ruin our beverages. The inner diameter of this coaster is 93 mm (3.6"), making it compatible with most cups. If you use larger ones, just scale it up slightly when slicing your design. ###* Don't forget to post a Make if you decide to bring this to life! *
