Toothpaste Squeezer (Improved)

thingiverse

Toothpaste holder with a non return mechanism, so the toothpaste won't unravel (unwind) after you turn it. Printed in 7 separate components. Requires the use of M3 short screws for assembly. Would recommend printing all components at 20% infill except for the Mechshaft which I recommend 50% infill. The Mechshaft could also be printed up to 100% infill for more reliable operation. The Pin holds the Lid of the squeezer shut. This pin is friction fit, the hole that this pin fits into may need to be cleaned up a bit with the head of a screw driver or Dremel to allow for a looser fit as it is tight. WARNING: Do not turn the mechanism opposite to the intended direction as this will lead to the mech shaft breaking and another will need go be printed. This component can be easily replaced. Please add some feedback if you have time, Thank you.
