I was looking for a way to start some seeds and figured I could re-use some waste items.

I wanted to re-use some plastic soda bottles as seed starters but needed a base to keep them upright and stable. I ran through a few prototypes and ended up with this. Cut a bottle in half, screw it into the base, drop in a cotton ball and fill with some soil (ish material). No problem keeping even a 2L bottle upright. Drain holes in the base keep everything from becoming waterlogged.

Because of the shape of the bottle it makes it REALLY easy to give it a quick squeeze and have it just PLOP right out!  No muss, no fuss.

Printed with 20% infill at .20 resolution using PLA.

Like my design, how about a cup of coffee?
