I got tired and frustrated after printing other dispenser designs and having them jam after only a few batteries were dispensed. So I came up with this jam-free design and it really works well and will hold 39 batteries.
If you lay the model down on its side on the printer bed, you only need a very tiny amount of support from the bed only. All it has to support is the curl of the 3 dispenser chutes.
Hints on gluing the side cover.
Be very careful when gluing the Side Cover to the dispenser.
If you use too much glue there is a chance it will ooze into the battery chutes and interfere with the dispensing. Use glue very sparingly to avoid this.
I used epoxy glue on PLA and it worked fine. I prefer epoxy as it gives you lots of time to get perfect alignment.
