This is an adapter to put a Nalgene bottle in a fairly standard car cupholder,  Print should be in VASE mode for best results. I started out with a fairly generic design, then got intrigued by a YouTube video regarding using vase mode for faster prints, I decided to play with designing around that.

Originally designed around a Nissan Versa cup holder, I've successfully used it in a Ford Transit, Ford Fusion, and a Ford F450.

I've only tested the 0.6mm nozzle version, and it's doing well.  I printed in PETG, and it's stood up well for the last few weeks in the car with outside temperatures above 35C.  I changed the parameters in Fusion360 so that it should be printable with a 0.4mm nozzle, but after several samples that are also holding up well, I have no need for more adapters, so haven't bothered to test with the smaller nozzle.  

Please share your experience, especially if you choose the 0.4mm nozzle version.
