Instructions

Tips for printing:
* Support material is useful for getting the handles and bottom of the cup started. It only goes up a few layers.
* A cooling fan with PLA helps to solidify the overhanging cup layers at the start of the print. On my first try without the fan, they started curling upwards.
* Suggestions for making this watertight are appreciated. On my first print, the water seeps into the base, then out the handles.

Blender 2.57 file is included. The 1st layer has the cup and handles in a form that can be easily manipulated. The 2nd layer has the mesh version with the handles joined to the cup, and scaled and rotated to print out at max size on a Makerbot.
