Gas Can Ratio Tags

thingiverse

Here are a few simple tags to help keep different gas-mix ratios separate from each other. I've included 32:1, 40:1, 50:1, and even 16:1 tags for older engines, taking note of Maytags! To address concerns about plastics and gasoline compatibility: I placed scraps of PLA and ABS plastic in a jar with gasoline and let them sit for 48 hours. Notably, the ABS became a pile of goo while PLA seemed unaffected by its surroundings. Considering that these gas-related tags may come into contact with gasoline or fuel fumes, I strongly advise using PLA or possibly Nylon. As part of my ongoing revisions: Added 100:1 and SMOKE tags to keep things well-organized. Instructions began by selecting the darker blue tag. Cutting it at its half-way point allowed me to feed in a contrasting white tag, wrapping up the color-shifting design seamlessly.
