This caddy is designed to attach to a pipe with diameter 18 mm, by way of a clamp and 2 screws. I designed it for my shower, where it fits exactly around, and is supported by, the tap unit at the base (as pictured). While the outside of the model is lightweight and flexible, the less flexible “spine” keeps the load-bearing parts of the model strong and rigid, in this assembly. If you do not have a similar tap unit however, it is still likely to be strong enough for daily use without buckling.
The exterior of the model features a pattern of cutout hexagons, to allow drainage. This made the model quite stringy and difficult to print in some areas. Were I to design this again, I would opt for a simpler design with separate components attached together by the screws that attach the caddy to the pipe.
I printed this our of PETG - I recommend you do the same, as PLA may not be sufficiently strong, particularly at the higher temperatures found in a hot shower. The body of this model is quite large, but printable on a Prusa i3 (not a Mini, unfortunately). A small brim is recommended.
