Coffee Grounds Funnel/Distributor for Gaggia Classic

thingiverse

Second prototype of coffee distributor with funnel. This fits on the Gaggia Classic 58mm portafilter (outside diameter is 69mm). Post-Printing *Make sure to add support "everywhere" when you print! The layer height was 0.25mm but I recommend to use finer setting so that it has smoother surface. Density was 20%, but for this purpose, it could be ok with lower setting. How I Designed This Modified version of the first prototype coffee distributor (http://www.thingiverse.com/thing:1744748). The funnel part is added. Material used is PLA, I modelled this from scratch in SolidWorks. Originally, I had some fillets in corners but layer height was not fine enough to print the detail of fillets. I replaced those fillets to chamfer instead in this STL file. By doing so, it reduced file size into more than half. Other differences from the first prototype are that the sweeper is 1mm deeper (7mm deep), and it seems to work better than 6mm deep. And the sweeper is 57.5mm long instead of 57mm.
