The ink shovel

thingiverse

I've been designing tools for screen printing lately, this is the second in the series. This ink shovel is used in combination with the ink scraper to clean out your screens after screen printing. It has high sides and a width that allows you to easily get your ink back into a quart jar without wasting it. These both print without supports. I printed them at 0.2 layer height in black PLA on a creality ender 3 pro. The video showing it's use can be seen here: https://youtu.be/dgtAMsaVL3o
