a tin can ashtray (for Feierabendbier :-) ) by MrDebug65

Last crawled date: 3 years, 1 month ago

a more usable than pretty thing.... as you can see yourself
the lid normally fits on almost every 0.33ltr or 0.5ltr tin can with an
outer diameter of 67mm (see also wikipedia: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Drink_can )
uncritical print : no supports, no special layer heights,... needed
I normally do they with 0.2mm layer and 33% infill
( the object are not manifold, but they print ok with slic3r.
the non-manifold-state comes from the components of sketchup,
which all are manifold by itself, but : their combination is not)

just for fun : please publish
your "I MADE ONE" - pics with your local beer or
your personal beverage
I'm looking forward for the uploaded results :-)
when we have a beer in the evening in office, there is always a need of a lot of ashtrays
so I came across to design a litte part, which fits almost perfect on the top of a ISO-tin-can (beer, etc)
the container is large, can be exchanged easily,... there are A LOT of empty tins on these evenings :-)
just cut off the top of a tin-can, !!! be careful not to hurt yourself !!!
but for its a very thin tin-material, its easy to cut with a sharp knife or and exacto-knife.
to improve there is a detail to simply glue on top, which holds the cigarette for a moment.
And there is a kind of lid to close the hole, if there is too much smoke (stops glimming,too)
feel free to use it, and feel free to improve if you like.
greetings from germany
