Funnel 160 x 220 With Handle and Vent

thingiverse

Creating a decent-sized funnel required making adjustments in the Customizer. The dimensions worked out to 160mm wide by 220mm high. It was printed using orange PLA, with 25% infill and 1mm walls. The first attempt didn't quite work as planned because the hole started shrinking while strings of PLA dripped down. This caused a problem - the bed heat was essentially being funneled through like a chimney, preventing the material from hardening properly. To fix this issue, I manually edited the G-code to reduce the bed temperature to 50 degrees from 60 once the hole began to narrow. This customized funnel is based on a design found at https://www.thingiverse.com/thing:1848038. It was created using Customizer!
