Notes:
Printed with supports in the handle using a support enforcer.
No other supports should be necessary.
I also added an modifier in my slicer software to give the risers of the handles (side parts) a 30% infill instead of 15%.
I printed in PETG for extra strength and resistance to heat since this may be left in a car on a hot summer day. Make sure you are printing this with a filament that can withstand the heat for your situation. If you live in an area that gets really hot and you leave this in your car it can melt if you just use regular PLA. You don't want a hot cup of coffee wrapped by a soft holder.
This is rather large to cover all 4 cups. On My Prusa I3MKS it was tight. I needed to print it diagonally. You can turn off the perimeter to give yourself some additional room. If your printer is small go with the Hot 2 Handle instead. 2 copies if you need 4 cups.
It may go without saying but make sure that you check the lid in the store. Sometimes my experience has been the person making your coffee does a lousy job of securing it properly. Also Sometimes they fill the cup to the maximum height causing it to drip or spill. Use common sense.
Also when you get to your car, I recommend moving the cups to cupholders. The HOT2Handle is designed to fit some in-car cupholders but with 4 cups that will not be the case. Make sure you are moving in car safely with your coffee. The cupholder is not designed to hold the coffee in a secure position while your car is moving.
Be careful not to smash the cupholder into your leg while walking.
The Hot 2 Handle is the original design that also happens to fit many car Cup holders.
