Coffee Bag Lid
Description
Instructions
CoffeeBagLid
CoffeeBagClip
CoffeeBagLock
CoffeebagCap or CoffeeBagCap2
Open your coffee bag and hold the CoffeeBagLid in place at the top of the bag so that there's enough of the bag for the CoffeeBagClip to hold. While holding the CoffeeBagLid in place with one hand, pry open the "tongs" of the CoffeeBagClip with the other hand and slide it over the CoffeeBagLid. The lid should now be loosely held in place. Slide on the CoffeeBagLock to lock the clip into place. Screw on the CoffeeBagCap!
It's not the easiest thing to attach, but when it's on it's secure. If anyone has any good ideas to improve the attach process then please let me know.
UPDATE: 17th Jan, 2013. I've added a taller cap for easier use, CoffeeBagCap2. It's from thingiverse.com/thing:41981 but it has an identical radius/thread.
UPDATE: 17th Feb 2013. I've added pourcap.stl, a cap that allows me to pour ground coffee in a controlled manner into a reusable kcup.

You can use the small cap from http://www.thingiverse.com/thi... for this too. Maybe I should just add it.
I've made a derivative that I think improves the ease of use. I've added a wider lid that's big enough to accommodate a table spoon and can pour larger things like corn flakes. Let me know what you think.
This is great, holds the bag really nicely. I'd agree with richrap's comments about the ridge on the clip, but it's very useful as-is.
Awesome! - Going to print one (or more) now - thanks for the great design, I'll be using it tomorrow morning :)
Just going through the Newest listing and saw this and have to say, this is too good . . . Nice design ! ! !
That one would be worth posting at Quirky.com It's the sort of thing they like taking to market, would stand a decent chance of getting picked.
