Chopstick Hacker! For ease of eating delicious food

Hacking

I liked the chopstick cheaters. Not for me (obviously I've long mastered the art of chopstick eating :), but my girlfriend really finds these useful.

But, there's several things I didn't like with the original (why else would there be the need for a remix!). So what do you do when cheating isn't enough? You start hacking.

So here it is:

• The 6x5mm cavity has been rotated 90 degrees, so now the wide part (6mm) of the chopsticks faces each other for ease of grappling.
• I enlarged the opening between the feet, so you can clench those sticks together more without the plastic bits interfering!
• I rotated the whole model; it is now in the desired print orientation instead of upright. If your printer can bridge well; you can also opt to rotate the model 180 degrees.
• Two versions: one with a slightly easier fit. If your chopstick is 6mm or maybe slightly wider, try the easier fit. If it doesn't fit well, let me know and I'll add another version!

Settings

It is based around the original one with middle strength (there are 3 versions of differing strength in the original). I use:

• PETG as it flexes more than PLA, which is useful for sliding the chopsticks in and keeping them tight
• 2 perimeters
• 18% infill

…but if you prefer a stronger grasp, raise those values to your desired stronkness!

I would love a download, like, review or make; it helps keep me motivated to design/remix more stuff!
