Krups Solo Espresso Maker Handle

thingiverse

I was gifted a Krups Espresso maker from the neighborhood Buy Nothing group. Works great but the handle was starting to fall apart.This is my attempt at replacing the handle. The part that receives the ribs on the filter holder is made solid to make it stronger than the original design optimized for injection moldiong.I suggest printing with ABS as PLA probably will soften too easily from the heat.Work in progress. V1 - Initial release. I will need to see how it holds up once I start banging it against a knock box - might need to thicken the base area more, though my initial guess is that it will hold up.V2 - Went ahead and added a bit more thickness to the base where the screw sits, creating a pocket. Also chamfered the handle end so it's not square. Created a stubby version in case you want a shorter handle instead.
