Stand for Single Dose Coffee Syringes

thingiverse

I've started storing single 18g shots of coffee beans in 60ml syringes. This is a simple stand to keep six of them handy by the side of my espresso machine. The syringes I used are 31.6mm in diameter and around 130mm long. If your syringes are different, you may want to adjust the design. It's printed in two parts, the top pushing onto the base. I printed in PLA and used dichloromethane as a solvent to bond the two parts. Superglue if probably adequate. I used a modifer in PrusaSlicer to print the bottom section of the base with 60% infill, whilst the stem and the top were printed at 15%. This gave me sufficient strength, but a little more weight in the base for stability. You can find the files for the new caps that I designed for these syringes here: (https://www.thingiverse.com/thing:5201980)
