The file 'Alien_Beer 3D Printer Model' is (factory,stl,fff) file type, size is 5.7MB.
My first try organic modelling,
I used the amazing head from ideaform3d https://www.thingiverse.com/thing:579768
A simple but cool Aliens Beer Bottle opener.
Using a coin for the leverage.
Update: v6 A lot cooler :) and fits better to the bottle with an angle on the underside.
Update: v5 Now have designed in support that your leave on the model,no need for supports any more :)
There are two variants in the files
One for UK 5p coin
One for US 1 cent coin
I can make other variants on request.
DO NOT put pressure on the legs when opening the bottle they will break, just use the cross bar and the body to hold for leverage. See pictures.
There is precise tolerance set to push the coins in and a tight fit.
Ensure you can print bridges at least 20mm, some people can drop the coin in coated with glue stick if you pause the print I haven't tried this.
See picture on the best method to push the coin in.
The coin should stick out by 5.5mm only.
Added the s3d factory files.
I have added by PLA fff file if it helps (set for the CR-10)
All Tacblades designs are tested and printed before posting. All designs and created with 3d printing from the beginning so minimal support and angles designed to print easily.
