Costco sells 3 packs of Lipton's black tea. The box does not fit in my cabinet well and when it's half full it wastes a lot of valuable space. I modeled this to save space and reposition the tea bags for upright storage. Two of these towers will fit the entire 104ct box of black tea packets.
If you improve on this model I'd love to see it. I think there are a few areas that could be improved, but I am happy with where this project ended up and it fits my needs. I have included the STEP file for your customizing pleasure.
Some ideas I had to improve on it was to make it connect with its pair since it's designed to fit the entire box of 104 bags and each unit holds 52ish bags.
You could also squeeze out a bit more height out of an Ender 3, but my end gcode kills my printer when I go above 245mm height models. I know you can disable this in the slicer's end gcode, but I am not worried about that. I assumed anyone else would rather have a model that doesn't kill their printer at the end of the print without having to modify their slicer end gcode just to print this model.
Printer: Creality Ender 3
Material: PLA
Nozzle: 0.6mm
Resolution: 0.3mm
Walls: 3
Supports: None. The bridge opening is a chamfer and once the first layer of it is printed the rest will print over top of it nicely with stock Ender 3 cooling.
