Portable Salt Shaker

thingiverse

I needed a compact spice shaker designed specifically for backpacking that wouldn't leak or require extra caps. One-handed operation was essential, as I anticipated needing to pack away without worrying about spills or misplacing pieces. Hopefully this design will work out. To create a reliable one-hand grip, I opted for NinjaFlex for the plug and embedded a 6mm x 4mm cylindrical magnet inside the design. This simple modification enables users to connect multiple shakers together or securely fasten them to various objects like fuel canisters, but is not mandatory. Several iterations of exterior tube designs exist; these are labeled with varying micron gaps between internal and external components. As users experiment with different materials for interior and exterior parts, adjusting gap sizes may be necessary to achieve a perfect fit in each unique situation.
