Star Wars inspired Cannon Tiki Mug

thingiverse

Someone posted a drawing of one of the Cannons on Hoth drawn as a tiki mug and I couldn't help but chuckle at its absurdity. Here's my own take on it, created from scratch. I designed the entire thing in one go, but unfortunately, the internal straw didn't quite work out as planned. It seems that it got stuck inside the model and refused to come out, so I'm just going to buy a regular tiki mug instead. I did use support material, which turned out to be pretty decent except for one minor issue - it filled in the cannon barrel, making it impossible to use as a straw until I drill it out. Given that, I decided to remove the internal straw altogether. If you're interested in creating a functional tiki mug with a working straw, you'll need to purchase some tubing from a hardware store. It's remarkably cheap and should do the trick. As for the design itself, some of the details were a bit lacking, so I made some adjustments on the fly. However, I didn't get a chance to test them out yet. To make things easier for everyone, I've uploaded the design to Tinkercad, where you can tweak it to your heart's content.
