Penception
Pen cap pen cup, where you can put a pen with its cap in your pen cup that is shaped like a pen cap. Like the movie Inception.
In two sizes; one 200mm high and one 260mm high, you can choose depending on the max print height of your printer. If you like the 260mm model more but are limited to ~210mm (e.g. with MK3s+), you can also scale that whole 260mm model down to 75-80%.
Print settings
A few pointers/specific things to keep in mind:
- A heavy bottom is preferred. High infill (like in the attached project) or put some metal parts in it while printing (tricky though!).
- Minimum layer time should be sufficient for good cooling, especially for the tip. Increase that value to be on the safe side, or lower the minimum print speed.
- Overhangs for the ridge require a local high perimeter count (5+) so the shape is circular so it will print nicer.
- Enable dynamic bridging speed for best quality for the ridge, set it to a low speed.
- Possibly raise bridge flow ratio for better perimeter adhesion with the ridge.
A project file is included which has everything covered except the bridge flow ratio.
