Oui Jar Lid

thingiverse

This was created because I wanted to re-use Oui Yogurt jars to store small parts. After looking all over the internet, I didnt find what I wanted so I made my own. This lid DOES seal VERY well and so far all the ones I have made are water tight, however I am not sure they are air tight. You can go out and buy lids from Yoplait at about $1.00 USD a piece, but I figured why not print my own at about $0.25 USD ea. This design has an internal ring that acts like a primary seal around the inside lip, and the outside lip snaps over the rim, securing the lid in place. Post process I do run a green Scotch Brite style pad around the inside lip to remove any stray pieces of filament after printing. I dont know if this improves the sealing capabilities, but I figured it couldn't hurt, and may not be necessary. My print settings are SLOW for TPE - Flexible Filaments Anet A8 Clone Printer and IdeaMaker Slicer pared with OctoPrint 0.15mm Layer Height 3 Perimeters - Outside Perimeter Last 4 Top and Bottom Layers Bottom layer is extruded at 160% All layers are extruded at 110% 25% Cubic Infill 15mm/s Outer Shell Speed 20mm/s Inner Shell Speed 15mm/s First/Bottom/Top Layer 20mm/s Infill 0.40mm Hotend at 245c 55c Heatbed on Garolight Sheet with Hairspray (the part holds on and will not come loose during print) 25% cooling fan at layer 3 and up (First 2 layers the fan is off) Hope this helps someone out like it has helped me. Enjoy the make and let me know if you have any questions.
