Wood PLA Coffee Espresso Tamper

thingiverse

This is a fully printable wooden PLA coffee / espresso tamper. The original design is for a 52mm portafilter, specifically for the breville barista express. This being said the design is quite adaptable because it is 2 parts that screw together, the base and the handle, so I can take requests for specific portafilter sizes. This is a pretty simple design and print but what sets it apart is in the filament used and the work done post print. I must say this Wood PLA is quite amazing and the things you can do in post printing open a lot of new possibilities. This HatchBox Wood PLA is highly sand-able, stainable and takes a polyurethane sealing coat very well. I highly recommend checking it out, it can be found here: HatchBox Wood PLA - https://amzn.to/2L9eeMO The other filament I used for the "metal" base was prusament grey, I plan to test more interesting metaling finish PLA soon.
