Water bottle tote for fishers

thingiverse

Another water bottle tote that clips onto your belt loop features a fish at its base. The design prints in two separate pieces which are joined using nail polish remover, also known as acetone. I added a key ring to the setup along with a simple carabiner clip. Note that not all water bottles are identical. After testing various brands, I discovered that bottles from Costco, specifically the Kirkland brand, have slightly larger bases and do not slide into the tote easily. The inner diameter of this tote is 67mm or approximately 2.64 inches. Consider scaling up the STL file by a percent or two to make it more versatile. Post-printing tasks include filing down the top tab to ensure a smooth fit. Depending on your extruder temperature and filament type, the piece might not fit perfectly. You may need to sand or file the joint area where the two parts meet to get a tight seal. Once you achieve a good fit, wipe both parts with acetone and press them together firmly.
