Description

## Keep Your Drink Cold with Physics! 🍺❄

Meet the AirGap Sleeve, a scientifically designed can cooler that uses a dedicated "Air Gap" layer to maximize thermal insulation.

Unlike standard printed sleeves where the walls are solid, this design features a 3-part assembly (Outer Shell, Inner Core, and Locking Base). This unique structure ensures that the inner wall touching your cold drink has minimal contact with the outer shell held by your warm hand.

### 🚀 Key Features:

* Floating Core Design: The inner liner connects to the outer shell only at the base, creating a true insulating air gap all around the can.

* No Sweaty Hands: The double-wall gap prevents condensation from reaching the outside surface.

* Mix & Match: Print the parts in different colors to match your style or team colors.

### 🧩 Parts List:

1. Outer_Shell: The main aesthetic body (Print in PLA/PETG).

2. Inner_Liner: Holds the can securely (PLA is fine, or TPU for extra grip).

3. Base_Lock: Screws/Snaps the two parts together.

### 🖨 Print Settings:

* Material: PLA, PETG, or PLA-CF looks great.

* Nozzle: 0.4mm

* Layer Height: 0.2mm (Standard)

* Infill: 15% (Grid or Gyroid)

* Supports: No supports needed (Designed for easy printing).

* Brim: Recommended for the tall "Inner Liner" part to prevent wobbling.

### 🛠 Assembly:

1. Insert the Inner_Liner into the Outer_Shell.

2. Secure them by screwing/snapping the Base_Lock at the bottom.

3. Enjoy your frosty beverage!
