Knurled Branch Tube! (and longer segments!)
🕑 Added 2020-07-20 07:39:14 +0000 UTCHey there wonderful people!
By popular demand, the branch tube is now available in a different outer texture! This time it's a knurled finish, and being a relatively fine pattern it won't be obvious if the patterns don't precisely sync up between parts. Also, the texture feels nice :)
There are a couple of longer individual segments too, both in the original and knurled versions - the files are labelled with their lengths, and they're just longer versions of the standard tube piece, but it means longer tubes can be printed more efficiently.
The other dimensions haven't changed, so the knurled tube parts will happily coexist with the regular ones if you choose to mix them up!
Printing Tips
As before, the tube parts all print upright, except for the open and closed lids, which print upside-down. Here's a pic!
These parts shouldn't be too sensitive to printing issues, especially since they print separately, but you'll still want your bottom layer to look nice for those top pieces, so take care with that :)
File Location
* Longer tube parts are in the original Branch Tube folder on dropbox under: 814 Branch Tube
* Knurled tube parts are in a folder underneath that: 814 Branch Tube / Knurled
Have fun!

Thank you.

That's a great idea! Test printing now :D
Love the knurled variation! BTW, I was hoping to put together a tube with compartments a la https://www.thingiverse.com/thing:2088429, but then realized there are no tube parts with bottoms here. It's only possible to build one multi-part tube with no compartments. Please, please, would you care to add a few tubes with bottom separators?

Woohoo, awesome :)
Just finished printing one of these in classic matte black. 26 hours and totally worth it. 😁

Hahaha, you are far from the only one with such tendencies :D

They look fab and will trip my OCD tendencies less 😀
