Multifunction pill holder (1 day and 7 day in 1 unit)

thingiverse

This is a pill holder that lets you carry a separate container for each day, making it easy to transport only what you need. To make one of these, you'll need access to the Fusion 360 file attached below. The file includes all the necessary parts for this design, and I'd love to see what changes people can come up with to improve it. First, print out seven Med_holder.stl files. These will be the individual containers that hold your medication for each day of the week. Next, print one Lid.stl file - this is the part that screws onto the container to keep everything secure. You'll also need to print a main_screw.stl and a main_Lid.stl. The main_body.stl is the central part of the holder, where you'll store all your medications for the week. I found it best not to put my name on this part, as it's a bit too thin and can cause problems during printing. If you want to print the version with two lids, simply print the med holders and the lid - that's it! This design is perfect for people who need to take their medication every other week. Just emboss the lid with the days of the week, and you're good to go. The sizes of all the parts are as follows: the cups are 37mm tall, with a 2mm bottom and 2mm sides. The screw-on lids for these cups add an extra 5mm, making them 42mm tall when combined. The entire holder measures 140mm wide by 44mm high (not including screws), or 49mm high with the screws. This project requires a good amount of printing time - expect it to take around two days to complete, depending on your printer's speed. I used about 300g of material for this project, and one of my prints took around 18 hours to finish. Here are the sizes you can expect from each part: * The cups are 37mm tall, with a 2mm bottom and 2mm sides. * The screw-on lids add an extra 5mm, making them 42mm tall when combined. * The entire holder measures 140mm wide by 44mm high (not including screws), or 49mm high with the screws. I've attached the Fusion 360 file below for easy access. If you make any changes to this design, please link it back to this post so I can see what you come up with!
