Quad "Special Cigarette" Capsule

prusaprinters

<p>This design was inspired by the capsule made by Pixxelsnake. I edited his design to make it threaded instead of using an O-ring because I didn't have any, and then made a new design that holds four rather than just one.</p> <p>I shrunk the dimensions for the holder to a "cigarette" that is 100mm long, 11mm at its thickest, and 6.5mm at its thinnest and overall compared to the original the package is 50% larger.</p> <p>To secure the lid, I used an M3 screw with a side filed flat, and a nut. These were added to the print, mid print, to create a seamless design.</p> <p>This does mean the lid has to be suspended up on supports with a single layer cylinder in the middle that gets cut away at the end, so that the screw can be put in mid print.</p> <p>I have since added a version with flat sides to stop it rolling around, this is compatible with the original lid, but I may edit the lid in future also.</p> <p>I am also putting silicone around the lip of the lid, to create a waterproof seal, however this isn't a major concern of mine so if it doesn't last that's no sweat off of my back.</p> <p>I have also added a lid design for where the screw can be added post print, and a stopper be glued in behind it. It will give you a nice flat bottom surface to mate with the main part, but will have a seam on the top from the stopper, and will be more or less obvious depending on how tight you can get the tolerances.</p> <p>If you need to edit the stopper to fit the tolerance of your printer, the exact dimensions for the hole in the lid is 5.45mm diameter, 2mm height.</p> <p>The entire item is printed in eSun PLA+</p> <h3>Print Settings</h3> <p><strong>Printer:</strong></p> <p>Prusa Mini+</p> <p class="detail-setting rafts"><strong>Rafts: </strong> <div><p>No</p></div> <p><strong>Supports:</strong></p> <p>Yes</p> <p class="detail-setting resolution"><strong>Resolution: </strong> <div><p>0.2</p></div> <p><strong>Infill:</strong></p> <p>20% Gyroid</p> <p><strong>Filament:</strong></p> eSun PLA+ <p>White How I Designed This ===================</p> <p class="detail-image"><img src="https://.s3.amazonaws.com/?AWSAccessKeyId=AKIAJ4LU5KWCMM7WB7YA&amp;Expires=1632312853&amp;Signature=JuKgZiqb5Pa7wGLDthGG%2B%2BV2Rzc%3D"/></p> <p class="detail-image"><img src="https://.s3.amazonaws.com/?AWSAccessKeyId=AKIAJ4LU5KWCMM7WB7YA&amp;Expires=1632312854&amp;Signature=3RbezCiSZA2Jk4q8nJ8dL4Ap8dE%3D"/></p> <p class="detail-image"><img src="https://.s3.amazonaws.com/?AWSAccessKeyId=AKIAJ4LU5KWCMM7WB7YA&amp;Expires=1632312854&amp;Signature=3RbezCiSZA2Jk4q8nJ8dL4Ap8dE%3D"/></p> <p class="detail-image"><img src="https://.s3.amazonaws.com/?AWSAccessKeyId=AKIAJ4LU5KWCMM7WB7YA&amp;Expires=1632312855&amp;Signature=llkv9vUgDf9SACVxP6fXdlBgKKg%3D"/></p> <p class="detail-image"><img src="https://.s3.amazonaws.com/?AWSAccessKeyId=AKIAJ4LU5KWCMM7WB7YA&amp;Expires=1632312855&amp;Signature=llkv9vUgDf9SACVxP6fXdlBgKKg%3D"/></p> <p class="detail-video"> <figure class="media"> <oembed url="https://www.youtube.com/embed/qlRwh_iQwlk"></oembed> </figure> </p> </p></p> Category: Organization
