Description
Tired of burning your fingers on hot paper coffee cups? This minimalist cup holder is designed to grip the natural taper of standard disposable cups, providing a sturdy, ergonomic mug handle without needing to print a massive, filament-wasting full sleeve.
Key Features:
Filament Efficient: The narrow ring design uses significantly less material and prints much faster than traditional full-cup sleeves.
Modular Interlock: The holder is split into two pieces—the main ring and the D-shaped handle. The handle features a geometric hook base that slides smoothly into a vertical slot on the ring for a secure mechanical lock.
Support-Free Geometry: Designed with 3D printing in mind. When oriented correctly on the build plate, neither part requires supports.
Universal Fit: Relies on the natural taper of paper cups to wedge securely into place. (Bottom of the cup hangs freely below the ring).
