Yarn Bowl Flower Nut and bolt

thingiverse

My wife asked me to make her a Yarn Bowl from a decretive metal tin she had. The tin had a Japanese Geisha and Cherry blossom theme. This decretive nut and bolt was designed to match the theme and protect the yarn from the sharp edges of the holee left from drilling a 10mm hole in the top of the tin lid. Print Settings Printer Brand: Printrbot Printer: Simple Black Rafts: No Supports: No Resolution: 0.2mm Infill: 10% Post-Printing Smoothing out the thread Inspect the thread for any defects and remove them with a razor or light sanding, screw the nut down slowly working it back and forth screwing it down a little further each time until the nut moves down the entire length of the thread. It will be tight at first but as the edges lap each other and smooth out the threads will slip over each other much easier. Using some lubrication helps with the process, a water based lube is ideal.
