Description
I had a favorite soap dish made from soap stone(no pun intended). I loved the weight and the way it would just stay put. Unfortunately it shattered when dropped one day. I tried to replicated the feel using ball bearings and I used HZST3D Marble PETG filament to simulate the soap stone. You can use any filament but I chose PETG because I wanted to have the option to place this in the dishwasher.
Any ¼" or 6.35mm ball bearing will work for weight. Simply add a pause in your print to fill the pockets in the base. This also prints as just a single unweighted dish.
CAD models with Parametric variables to change size and dimensions are available in ONSHAPE.
