I wanted to include a double helix in the design and I really enjoy stuff that includes hexagons. Enter the Helical Hexagon Pen Cup. I designed it to use minimal supports (why waste plastic if you can design it out) and I think the prototype came out great!

 

Printed in Overture Matte Yellow PLA. Took around 13 hours start to finish with included GCODE.

Settings I used: 200C Hotend, 60C Bed, 20% Infill, 50 mm/s print speed.

For the next print, I would personally lower the bed temperature because the plastic warped a little off the build plate.

Let me know if you have any design considerations or ideas for other pen cups!
