Toothbrush Cover

A protective cover for a toothbrush in times of travel. Designed to be printable on a makerbot.

Far too often I find myself carrying my toothbrush in a plastic bag in my backpack, and sometimes even fully exposed. Before I waste the energy going out and trying to locate and purchase a cover, I figure I will enable the world with a solution in hopes that it will someday find its way back to me.

The cross section shows the conical inner wall leading up to a hole. This enables the part to print without support material, and the hole allows for easy cleaning under the faucet. The outer wall maintains the smooth semi elliptical form, causing thick areas near the top. I am interested to see how much deformation this may cause.

Total volume of part: 0.49 cubic inches
