🛠️ Adding a Skewer Hole to the Model (no hole print profile

Follow these steps to add a correctly sized skewer hole to the model.
 

1️⃣ Measure the Skewer Diameter

Use the Skewer Measuring Device to find the correct diameter for your skewer:

2️⃣ Open and Prepare the Model

• Open the model in Bambu Studio
• Center the object on the build plate
• Right-click the object → Fix Model
  ⚠️ This step is important — the Mesh Boolean operation may fail if the model is not fixed.

3️⃣ Add the Hole Geometry

• Select the model
• Click Add Part → Cylinder
• Center the cylinder
• Set the cylinder dimensions:
  • X & Y: skewer diameter you measured
  • Z (height): 12 mm (hole length)

4️⃣ Position the Cylinder

• Set the cylinder X (object coordinate) to 3 mm
• Set the cylinder Z (world coordinate) to 6 mm
  (half of the hole length)

📌 Visually confirm that the cylinder and the model are correctly aligned before continuing.

5️⃣ Subtract the Hole

• Select both the model and the cylinder
• Use Mesh Boolean → Subtract

You should now have one object with the correctly sized skewer hole.

6️⃣ Final Print Settings

• Select the finished model
• Click Variable Layer Height
• Choose Adaptive (default settings work well)

7️⃣ Slice and Print 🚀

That’s it — slice the model and start printing!

🖨️ Print Recommendations

• Material: PLA
• Layer height: 0.2 mm
• Infill: 15–20%
• Supports: Not required
• Orientation: As provided

🔥 Important Usage Instructions

Just push the chocolate from the top into the holder. The bottom wrapper will allow it to slide in and then lock in place.

⚠️ Do NOT pry the arms open

The chocolate should fit in easily, but in case it does not:

• Do NOT force the arms apart
• The arms are rigid by design and will snap if forced
• Instead, gently apply heat:
  • Use a heat gun, hot air station, or hair dryer
  • Warm the arms slightly until they become flexible
  • Insert the chocolate and allow the holder to cool

PLA softens with heat — this allows for safe adjustment.
