Enjoy drinking whatever you please from this turbine-shaped cup, with its own tap that cleverly emulates a turbine fan. There are two versions available: a small and bulky one, as well as a slim and large one. Be sure to print the corresponding tap for each version, and if you want to scale the cup, don't forget to scale it along with the tap. **Printing Tips** Since this cup is designed to hold liquids, I strongly recommend printing it with at least 80% infill (ideally 100% infill). This will ensure a sturdy and durable design. If you plan to paint the cup, make sure to use non-toxic paints that are safe in case of accidental consumption. Alternatively, consider printing the cup with colored plastic for a vibrant look. **Material Options** The type of plastic used can significantly impact the cup's usage: * ABS: This material is heat-resistant, making it suitable for tea or coffee. It's also cheaper and easier to source. However, ABS is more toxic in case of ingestion, and it can harm the environment unless properly sealed. * PLA: This eco-friendly material offers a wide range of colors and is safer for food consumption. Although it's pricier than ABS, PLA starts to decompose and deform at 50°C. If you encounter any issues with the cup's balance due to its narrow base, please let me know so I can make adjustments.
