The containers are designed to be as watertight (at least as far as 3D-Printing allows) to keep the contents dry.

Variants

Currently the model is available in four different diameters. (60mm, 80mm, 100mm, 120mm).

with various lengths for both halves of the container.

Available Lengths (in mm):

  • Type A (external threads):  40, 45, 50, 55, 60, 70, 80, 90, 100, 125, 150, 175, 200
  • Type B (internal threads): 45, 50, 55, 60, 70, 80, 90, 100, 125, 150, 175, 200

 

Part Naming Scheme

The Parts are Identified using a code specifying the nominal dimensions.

Printing

Recommended Materials

  • Container Halves (A-D???L??? / B-D???L???): PETG / PLA
  • Seal (S-D???): Printing in a flexible Material is required

General Tips

Fuzzy Skin for increased grip

Use the “Fuzzy-Skin” Setting to optionally to make the surface less slippery. The container can still be open and closed, even when wet, without the Fuzzy-Skin Option.

NOTE: I have consciously decided against modeling some type of knurling pattern in CAD, because this would tend to quickly lead to huge file sizes. (especially for *.stl files).

Tips for Making it Watertight

  • increase extrusion multiplier
  • increase printing temperature
  • Replace the Seal with a non-3D-Printed one
    • Outer_Diameter = Nominal_Diameter - 4mm
    • Inner_Diameter = Nominal_Diameter - 16mm
    • Thickness > 2.2mm

Beware that the print quality of the threads does not decrease too much.

NOTE: storing food in the container is NOT recommended. The layer lines make the part hard to clean, promoting the growth of potentially harmful microorganisms.
