Description
Some day, it will be common to print our own food.
Heck, we've been extruding pasta through nozzles for hundreds of years! But I'm talking about other food items...almost any food item you can imagine. Unfortunately, right now, if I want a cookie, or a brownie, or something else that's baked, I probably need to go to the store, or make it myself - but probably not on my 3D printer.
One thing you CAN print on your 3D printer is my wide array of coffee stencils, which let your coffee - or the coffee of someone you love (or hate because, frankly, you might want to give your frenemy some coffee) - have a pretty shape or pattern on top, especially on Friday.
Here's a list!
So you've printed one or more of these babies, and you eventually ask yourself: "where am I going to store these? If I toss them in a drawer, I'll never remember they're there when I need them!" The answer, is this Thing!
As shown in the photos, you can easily place a decent stack of the coffee stencils in a stack, and with the new icon identification system in the handle, you can even rotate each of the stencils in such a way that you can more easily see and grab the appropriate stencil for that moment. Hooray!
Over the next few weeks, I will be retrofitting the previous stencils to have the same sturdy handle design with the stencil icon built-in, so stay-tuned! I'll be updating all of the stencils separately, and editing the Summary to show that I've replaced the STL, but if you just want to watch this space, I'll be placing stencil updates here too, right at the top!
As you can see, downloading, printing and storing all of the stencils looks pretty good in this holder. Just because I printed it in light brown, doesn't mean you can't go with any other color you feel like printing it in. Black? White? Red? It's up to you! I hear the wide array of exotic filaments are fantastic these days! If you print one, please feel free to share your Make here.
Everyone is probably waiting for my Portal quote...and I won't disappoint:
Your entire life has been a mathematical error... a mathematical error I'm about to correct! --GlaDOS
So go forth, and print this holder, and as many stencils as you can. Make some coffee, pour some frothy creamer on top, sprinkle your powder of choice onto the top using the stencil, then sit back and enjoy the masterpiece you've created through the power of stencils! Then, once you've cleaned and dried the stencil, put it back where you found it: in this stylish stencil holder. You weren't brought up in a barn, were you?
Happy Friday! (It's always Friday somewhere, isn't it?)
