Senseo Pad Can "Colonne Morris"

thingiverse

Hi friends, I recently received a Senseo coffee machine as a gift, but to my surprise, there was no storage container included for the coffee pads. I decided to take matters into my own hands and design a custom pad carrier. As I sat down to create this solution, I drew inspiration from the iconic Eiffel Tower in Paris, thinking that a French-themed design would be a great fit for my Senseo machine. With this idea in mind, I set out to build a pad carrier that would not only hold multiple pads but also add a touch of French flair to my kitchen. The design consists of three main components: a top section for holding the pad carrier, a base that protects the coffee pad from airflow, and a tube that stores the pads. I created my version with 15 pads in mind, as my printer has limitations when it comes to print height. However, I've also prepared designs for 20-pad and 40-pad versions, which would be perfect for users who want to store an entire package of coffee pads. When assembling the pad carrier, I recommend placing the pads in the tube with their skirts facing down, making it easier to retrieve them later. To use the carrier, simply remove the tube from the base, catch the pad at its bottom, and then replace the tube on the base. One of my favorite features is the label holder on the tube, which allows you to attach a small label indicating the type of coffee used. This means that users can print multiple copies of the design for different types of coffee, making it easy to identify which pads are which. I hope you enjoy this DIY solution and feel free to share pictures of your creations, especially if you choose to build the taller versions! Best regards, You
