Irish Pot of Gold

cults3d

This small container is a versatile storage vessel that showcases the capabilities of 3D printing by featuring two integrated rotating handles in one single print. The container measures approximately 57.5mm in diameter with a 30mm opening at the top, making it perfect for storing valuable items like gold coins or other small objects such as jewelry, stationery supplies, nuts and bolts, parts, and many more. It also makes an excellent gift for anyone of Irish descent. Two versions (.stl's) are provided: one with a Shamrock design, suitable for use as an 'Irish Pot of Gold' during St. Patrick's Day celebrations, and another plain version without the Shamrock feature. Print in your preferred color. Scaling down is not recommended, but scaling up is possible within limits to ensure proper functionality. A well-set-up machine with precise slicing software is essential for a successful print, as lesser apps or inaccurate machines may struggle with printing the designed supports and handles. Avoid using automated support; instead, rely on a small amount of designed-in support under each handle to facilitate smooth building. The provided images demonstrate excellent results, with minimal support that should break away easily if sliced and printed correctly, leaving the rotating handles free to turn.
