Summary

Went on a koozie binge and this was the third of the few. It features 4 finger grooves around it, a snug fit to Pepsi cans and Coke cans (I imagine others too!), a hole in the bottom and a threaded top to keep your can secure at all times. Best feature is the drink counter, never lose track of how many drinks consumed! If you're not keeping track of your drink count, the numbers can be used to identify who's drink it is (if you somehow printed all with the same color).

I printed mine with PLA and used a 1mm wall thickness, with 4% gyroid infill to have the most air on the inside for insulation (I haven't tested to see if it works with no infill, but it might). The bottom layer count was increased to be 6mm thick of solid filament to give it extreme stability. The top threads are standard 3"-12, it's what fit the design and I'm not sure if it's the same as ‘other’ off the shelf varieties.

Print a few for your next party, outdoor event, or camping trip. Print different colors to not get mixed up with who's drinks are who's. Or use the indexing counter to identify drinks between different people.

Not much else to say about it, it's a koozie to keep your drinks colder for longer and to maybe strike up a conversation about 3D printing while doing it.

.STL files are quantity one each of the bottom part, top part, and counter ring. I used supports for some of the numbers.
