Sponge Holder with hex grid and drainage

thingiverse

Sponge holding tray to put at the side of your sink. Fits a standard US size kitchen sponge. Hex grid for drainage and angled grooves along the bottom so that any water is channeled to the front side. We put ours on the lip of the flush-counter kitchen sink so the water just goes into the sink. Print Settings Printer Brand: MakerBot Printer: MakerBot Replicator 2X Rafts: Doesn't Matter Supports: No Resolution: 0.2mm Infill: 10% Notes: The channels are arched so it should print without support. I didn't need a raft with ABS. The hex pattern gives a lot of structural stability just with the walls, so a light fill should do it. There is a tradeoff with number of shells. If you have gaps in the shell water could get inside, but if you use a lot of shells that will really up the plastic and print time. So I'd say 1 shell is risky if you're likely to have gaps. 2 shells probably is OK but depends on your printer. I printed with 3 shells and it came out great, but was a really long and heavy print by the time it was done.
