Decorative Barbie Can Holder

This Barbie-inspired soda can holder is perfect for the Barbie fan in your life. I made it for my wife and she loved it! 

The model is a solid print. I'd like to say that's because different people might prefer differnt types of cans, but if I tell the truth, it's because the file size is too large for Tinkercad, and I don't know how to use any other software.  On the bright side, this means you can easily choose what ever size cavity you need for what ever beverage can your special someone prefers. 

To create the cavity, I used the Negative Part feature in Orca Slicer and inserted a 58 mm x 58 mm cylindrical cutout into the center of the model (the wife loves her Alanis). When creating the opening, I recommend leaving approximately 4 mm of material at the bottom of the holder to act as a support shelf for the can. This provides enough strength to support the beverage while maintaining the structural integrity of the print.

Additionally, I've only printed it once. I'd say I over did the supports as they were a bit difficult to break off. They all came off with a little coaxing, but I figure you could get away with essential supports only, if you have a good enough printer. Your guess is as good as mine. It took 6.5 hours to print on my Flashforge Adventurer 5M and I don't have the patience to try again with different settings.
