Customizable PLA cooler

NEW: See the PLA Cooling Challenge http://www.thingiverse.com/thing:627590 PLA layers require cooling before printing the next one. Layers that are small might still be warm when the next layer is printed, causing visible deformation and print quality to decline. The problem can be lessened by slowing down the print speed or using a material cooling fan but persists for very thin layers. This dummy object lets you add delays between your real object's layers in your slicer. Simply place it far away from the actual item and print as usual. The cooler was designed to minimize material usage and is customizable via the Customizer button on the right side.
