"00" Gelcap Capsule Filler and tamper

thingiverse

This was a first pass at this design and I know I can improve on it, it was more a test and proof of concept and so I only made it for 25 capsules, I designed this and made this to help with the filling of empty "00" size gelcap capsules for fitness supplements. I added a 20mm calibration cube as a handle on the back of tamper (not shown in this - I may redesign it. This was my first attempt at this and it worked will enough for my requirements at the time. I made the mistake of not having the top inside surface of tray thick enough and so consequently with the infill I had there were a few small holes left in the upper face as you will see in the picture, not helped by the printer I was using was not mine and was not very good. I intend to remake this on my printer as I know it will be 100x better made on that. I just wanted to put the files out there for you all to have a play with.
