<p>Faced with the issue of too many tea tins, and not enough table space, I had to take the only rational course of action, which was to print something.</p><p>The tins in question hold disc shaped pouches, and are roughly 70mm in diameter, and 70mm tall, if they have an industry standard name, let me know so I can tag accordingly. Each caddy holds 4 tea tins (partially because I was putting them next to a wall, partially because 5 wouldn't fit on a MK3 bed), and can stack on top of one another when placed on a pole of ~40mm in diameter.&nbsp;</p><p>If you want them to spin independently of one another, I included a blank 100mm cylinder that can be used as a spacer between each caddy, just resize or sink it into the bed in your slicer for the desired height. The spacer can also be used to lift the caddy stack up off whatever is below it.</p><p>I tried to minimize the amount of filament used in the model by cutting away redundant faces, and came out to roughly 160g of filament that printed in 3 hours with a 0.8mm nozzle using slightly conservative settings in some random PLA given to me a few days ago. PETG would also be a nice choice of filament.&nbsp;</p>
