6-Pack x 16oz Cooler | Six Pounder

Boost MeDownload it. Print it. Try it. Like it. Boost it. Thx!

This fully 3D printed cooler is capable of holding (6) x 16 ounce cans comfortably, or (6) x 12 ounce cans with plenty of room for ice. The first cooler I made (link at bottom of description) gained more traction than I ever imagined for it so I decided to make another version of it to fit larger/taller cans. Thank you to everyone who interacted and shared comments on that one!

 

This print is big, on my A1 there is not too much room to spare on the sides. Make sure the build plate is on as straight as possible to avoid any unwanted issues. There are 5 plates associated with this, one plate basically for each part.

 

I know this large print size cuts away its printability on smaller printers, and I apologize. But, if you want a cooler that fits a 6 pack (of tall 16 ounce cans) then this is the print for you.

 

I printed mine from PETg and it came out great! Any other materials would probably be OK though. I'm guessing it's about as good as keeping cans cool as using a foam koozie based on some printed Koozie testing I've done previously.

 

It won't be as good at keeping things as cool as some of the higher end $$$ coolers, but the price is right for this one and it makes a great impact when people finally realize that it's a 3D print.

 

There are 3 parts needed to have a functional cooler:

Base

Lid

Handle

 

The optional parts:

Lettering

Divider

EOD, I felt I needed to design and print this… That's the only reason for doing it… I simply wanted to…

 

Oh yeah, you might find this helpful. Here is the internal volume of the cooler for reference:

 

If you print it, let me know how it goes for you and how you like it. Be sure to post photo's of your make too, I'd love to see them!

 

Thanks for checking it out!
