Sponge Holder with hex grid and drainage

thingiverse

Sponge holder tray designed to rest alongside your sink. Specifically crafted for standard US kitchen sinks, this product features a hexagonal grid pattern that allows water to drain freely. Angled grooves along the bottom direct any excess moisture towards the front edge of the tray. We place ours on the lip of our flush-counter kitchen sink so that water flows directly into the sink. Print Settings: Printer Brand: MakerBot Printer Model: MakerBot Replicator 2X Raft Option: Not necessary Supports Required: No Resolution Setting: 0.2mm Infill Percentage: 10% Notes: The arched channels in this design enable it to print without support. I successfully printed with ABS material without using a raft. The hexagonal pattern provides exceptional structural stability, even with minimal infill, making it suitable for a light fill setting. A trade-off exists between the number of shells and print quality. Using too few shells risks water seeping into the design, while too many shells increase plastic usage and print time. I recommend 2 shells as a safe option, but this may vary depending on your printer's capabilities.
