Can For The Can

Can For The Can

If you don’t trust the alumini(m)um can itself to hold up in harsh environments like your backpack, this is the print for you! Or you need a pencil case you can close, the 500ml can for the can might fit you, too. I use this for my examens at the university.

I had this problem a few times now, a leak in a full aluminium can, inside my backpack. Not partikular nice considering my laptop was in there, too. Therefore, I thought how I could solve this issue and protect my stuff from damage …or may be the can itself… . I came up with a can for the can.

Here you can find different models that fit common aluminium can sizes.

For now:
250ml Cans like those from RedBull
500ml Cans like those from MonsterEnergy, Beer and Äbbelwoi

I provided gcode for the models with a layer Hight of .15mm however, I recommend an even finer layer Hight for smooth threads.

As I don’t have any experience with ABS or ASA and its acetone vapor smoothing process I am curios if someone want to try this and give some feedback. Also, I have not tried the chamfered version, but this should need a really fine layer Hight, too.
