The Twisted Tantalus (Puzzle Cup)

thingiverse

Here we go! This isn't just a regular greedy mug... no way! It's an ultra-devious design that's been in development for over 2000 years in ancient Greece. I've put my own twist on this prank to meet the Make 2017 April Fools' Day challenge requirements. Every sneaky feature is right there in plain sight, but you'll still struggle to figure out the puzzle solution. Check out the full write-up and solution at: http://community.makezine.com/share/TacPar/the-twisted-tantalus-cup-be02d3 For a non-puzzle prank version, download the "pure evil" file instead. I personally love the full-sized mug, but you may need to scale it down for your printer. 75-80% should still work fine if your printer can handle it. A 50% scale is a bit too small. Print Settings: Printer Brand: LulzBot Printer: TAZ 4 Rafts: No Supports: No Notes: Don't use supports or you might brick your cup by blocking the flow! How I Designed This: 100% OpenSCAD Maybe I'll post the original SCAD script later, but it needs some serious cleaning up first.
