Simple Tea draining Tray

thingiverse

I recently came into possession of a small, Chinese tea set and while researching how to use it properly, I realized that an essential piece was missing. So, instead of going out and trying to find a small tea tray (which wouldn't really have worked since they don't really sell these things in every shop here in middle-Europe), I sad down and designed my own one. This Tea Tray gives you roughly 15x15 centimeters (or 6x6 inch) of surface area and holds around 300ml which, in my case, is enough to fill up and fully empty my Gaiwan three times (so, warming and one tea rinse is no problem). If you want your tray to hold a little more, you can just upscale the bottom in the z-direction or you can just make everything bigger. Both parts can be printed right on the bed with no support or raft needed (if your bed is big enough) I printed mine out of PETG for the main part and Easywood for the grate to give it at least a bit of a more traditional look.
