Sinkside sponge dish

Sinkside sponge dish

I needed a way to hold my sponges that allows them to drain and dry easily (not stacked up on top of one another), so I designed this quick model. It holds a scrub daddy (I cannot recommend this enough), a regular sponge, and another item if you wish (I have another scrubby sponge, but I did not have a clean one for the photo… I’m sure you don’t want to look at my gross dirty sponge).

I cannot stress this enough but… absolutely do not, under any circumstance, print this in brown. Sure, you think a dark wood filament would look classy, but trust me. Do not do it. Maybe use a marble PLA, that will look classy next to your sink.

Print settings

This model was designed to be printed in vase mode. In order to print correctly, you should use these settings:

Spiral vase mode / Spiralize outer contour: turn this on, this is how the whole magic works
Line Width: 0.8mm (this is important, and yes, you can do it with a 0.4mm nozzle)
Layer Height: 0.3mm (not necessarily required)
Bottom Thickness / Bottom Layers: 1.2mm (e.g. 4 layers at 0.3mm layer height) (this is important to get the best quality bottom with this model)
Printing Temperature: +10 to +15 degrees hotter than your usual temperature (for example, I usually print PLA at 200, but print this model at 210)
Flow: 110% (because why not)
