Summary
A practical flower pot shaped accessory! Hold toothbrushes, pencils, scissors, use as an ashtray, or come up with your own unique function. There is about 11 cubic in. of volume; based on what other people have posted for cost that should be around $3.xx in material.
This is a 2 piece design, allowing the user to unscrew the top and clean or get access to the insides with a simple 1/4 turn. The connection was influenced by Wizard23's idea for a Screw-able jewelry box ( http://www.thingiverse.com/thing:413 ), which I was able to see in person and it works beautifully. Be careful with the top because there is an extra mechanical advantage since the top is wider, so it should take less force to unscrew.
I dont have a makerbot, so I designed this conservatively. However, I took a couple printing risks with the details at the very bottom and very top. I think it should print based on my experience with other 3d printers, so I am very excited to see the Thingiverse community bring it to life.
Please send me your feedback!
I will update the files if there are reports of problems or someone wants a specific change.
Instructions
Print out the top and the bottom stl files so that the threaded features sit at the top and are the last thing to be printed. If there are settings to print out a honeycomb pattern in the thick sections, you will save material.
ENJOY!
