Toy cup

*** I upload new designs now mostly on PrusaPrinters.org. ***
If you want to support me, please download and like this design also on prusaprinters. If the design gets enough downloads&likes, i might get a spool of filament for free :-).
All my latest creations will be available there, as Thingiverse downloads are a bit broken at the moment and also the customizers seems to not work anymore.

Description

This is a toy cup. I made it for my daughters and friends to modify an object, watch the 3d printer how its printed and finally be able to get it as physical object in short time.

Its using only 0.35g / 12cm of Filament and prints in spiral vase mode in 3 minutes.

Its good to show how a 3d printer works (kids can observe the print and take something home afterwards). The OpenSCAD source code is minimal (just a cylinder), it is a very simple example for kids to start with.

Also included is a gcode file with 9 cups, printed sequentially: The vase mode results in the most beautiful cups, but can normally just print a single object. But printing several cups in one go is still possible with the sequential print mode, as the cups are small. Its fun to watch the print start again in different places of the print bed.
