Cotton Swab Dispenser

thingiverse

All I could find on Thingiverse were cotton swab dispensers that required supports, and I wanted one without it. So, thus was born my dispenser, where you fill up the "lid" then attach the "base" and just flip it over. It's a "work in progress" because I'm currently printing this, but I designed it correctly so we'll see if I can mark it OK tonight. Let me know if you think I should make the walls thicker... and I just realized I didn't make the half circle cutouts smooth. I'll definitely be fixing that. And once it's done, I'm going to see if the slide fit is good enough for such a small amount of friction. *** UPDATE 1: Just uploaded a new version with 2mm walls instead of 1mm... the previous version was just too fragile. Also fixed the smoothness of the cutouts. *** UPDATE 2: So, it fit correctly and has enough friction for now even with the shorter depth. I've just uploaded a replacement for the 2mm version that changes the angle higher, as well as giving a much larger hole to push down the cotton swabs from the top if they get stuck. I'm also removing the 1mm wall version.
