One Piece No Spill Inkwell

thingiverse

This is an one piece no-spill inkwell. It means, due to the inner cavity form, it won't spill when tilted or pushed, and even if turned upside down. But it WILL spill if shaken or dropped from a height. It is centuries old construction, adapted for 3d printing. It prints nicely with 0.3 mm layer height. There are only two critical things: * Print must be waterproof (do tests, increase temperature...) * You have better to minimize stringing, because it's impossible to remove strings after print The cap has a groove for optional silicone O-ring. ### How to use #### To fill: * Pour ink inside the inkwell, until it starts to fill the funnel * Gently rotate inkwell and pour out excess ink (you can turn it upside down for it) * That's it. #### To empty/clean * Use suringe. If you prefer ink and dip pen over all that modern wriitng junk, I also have a nice rocker blotter design: https://www.thingiverse.com/thing:5462282
