Skull soap dispenser

A Halloween skull soap dispenser. Original idea is by one of my daughters, when we discussed what could be printed for Halloween…

Youtube video.

Print

Print "SoapSkull_V4.stl". The model does not neccessarily need support material, i printed without, but the sides will droop a little.

I added the gcode file which includes limited support material.

Customizing

The “Balea” soap dispenser top is “cut out” from the skull via OpenSCAD, so you can adapt it to other soap dispensers. (See folder “source files”). To customize to other dispensers, please install OpenSCAD on your own computer and follow the detailed customizing instructions below or follow these in depth instructions.

As a tip, i 3D scanned the soap bottle using the app “scaniverse” and roughly modelled by measuring the top. The 3D scan is useful to see wether it will all fit together:

If you could take a picture of an actual print, please "Comment" and attach the picture.
I am curious to see your uses in the wild!

Other models

Please have a look at all my customizable creations.

Have fun!

Documentation

Find attached the modified skull (simplified, remeshed and fixed all holes/issues). Added the openSCAD source code which shows how the soap dispenser top is being cut out.

Detailed customizing instructions

Download latest version of OpenSCAD, (See section "Development snapshots" at (https://www.openscad.org/downloads.html) )
Download the "SoapSkull_V4.scad" file and all other files in “source files” to render customized versions (the skull STL is needed as a base)
Open the .scad file in OpenSCAD.
Change the variables to your liking
    To display the customizer, in the OpenSCAD "View" menu, the option called [Hide customizer] must be unselected.
    Alternatively, change variables in the code: You find the variables in the beginning of the .SCAD file
Press "F5" to get a quick preview.
Press "F6" when you like the preview. This will render the geometry and takes a little time.
Press "F7" to save the geometry to an .STL file.
Slice and print the .STL file.
