Tea Helper (customizable)

cults3d

Get ready for yet another First World Problem. This is a minimalist tool to prevent tea from leaking out of one's cup through the teabag wire due to capillary action, which may happen if you simply let the wire hang over the edge of the cup. If you correctly make a customized model and print it accurately, then the wire should be well clamped in one of the gaps. If not, you can still try wrapping it through both of the gaps for extra grip. The example model is for a spoon with a handle 10 mm wide and at most 2.1 mm thick. Use Customizer (https://www.thingiverse.com/apps/customizer/run?thing_id=2765102) to make a model that fits your favorite spoon(s). If Customizer is broken on the Thingiverse website, here are instructions (https://www.thingiverse.com/thing:2812634) to run it on your own computer. This is best printed in a flexible filament, because it reduces the need for a perfectly accurate print, and allows the Tea Helper to easily fit non-straight handles.
