Spaghetti Antlers

thingiverse

Functional art: Spaghetti antlers. Here are wall-mounted (optional) spaghetti measures designed to look like antlers. The dots denote the serving portion (I figured this looked more natural than numbers). Disclaimer: I have NO idea whether this is American or European sizing but I've followed the size that's generally available out there in the shops. There are TWO versions of antlers. Each have a left-facing and right-facing side and a pair of wall mounts (if you want to use them). Only two small screws are needed to secure the wall mount. The antlers/ measure plates are removable, simply lift. Why two VERSIONS? I started with the larger (v1) and then realised the dimensions exceeded my 6x6x6 print bed. Not wanting to distort the design, I created v2 that would fit a 6x6x6 print bed. Not as pretty imo but still works. Why two SIDES? The measure plates work singly, or in a pair (if you have the space to mount both). If you use both sides, mount them so that when you swing them open like saloon doors, they support both ends of your dried spaghetti. Simply drop in, grab and boil. Make cooking fun! ps: I didn't have spaghetti in my larder so I used Angel Hair pasta for the video:https://youtu.be/CVnSbMua5wI Update 21/7/16: v2 Right Side mount and antler printed, pic uploaded Print Settings Printer Brand: Printrbot Printer: Simple Black Supports: Yes Infill: 20%
