Thimble (Wearable)

thingiverse

A thimble was created for Snaks, and she appeared pleased with it. The design closely resembles my rounded shot-glass but is scaled to fit her finger perfectly, featuring conical indentations on its surface. Although the dimples are slightly too small to be noticeable on the printed object, we believe that the textured surface will serve the same purpose as the dimples would (preventing the needle from slipping). A more efficient method of adding these indents is desired, as they were time-consuming to model. The thimble was printed in two different orientations to assess fill quality on an up! printer. Inside fill provided a superior surface but required 30 minutes of removal using a tool.
