[Exclusive] Spooky Cup and Spooky Pencil Caps

double whammy release π»
This release includes:
Spooky cup:
Spooky cup prints in 3 parts! The cup, the bottom trim, and the lid! This way they can be printed on a single color printer! I have also included 3MF version for the cup and the lid! The lid comes with a hole that can be used as a pencil holder, or without a hole.
There is going to be tolerance variation when it comes to the lid! I've noticed on my printers that some lids feel a bit looser or tighter when printing them in different filaments and sizes, there is likely going to be tolerance difference between different printers as well. If you find that your lid is loose I would scale the lid up by 0.5%. The lid should not fall off when the cup is flipped upside down, it should sit securely in the cup.
For 120% and 150% scale cup, I recommend scaling the Lid to 101% this will help combat the bigger tolerances that comes with scaling things up. I recommend doing a test in single color to make sure the lid tightness is where you'd want it to be before printing the 3MF.
The skelly and beasty pixie fit into 120% scale cup, however its a bit too small for the bat which you would need to scale the cup to 150% for that one.
I recommend gluing the bottom trim onto the cup if you choose to use it.
Pencil Caps:
There are 3 pencil caps, they should fit over regular sized pencils. I got these little pencils from amazon and I though they make a great combination with the cups!
I've included 3MF files for all 3 caps!
The ghost Cap makes a great flushie, I believe the hat would too although I didn't get a chance to test it as a flushie.
The broom cap is going to be a bit more tricky as the area of bed adhesion is small, I don't recommend adding the broom caps to other plates as this increases the chance of losing the entire plate if one happens to lose adhesion. Print them on their own plate! Please ensure you are using a brim for this one!
*Edit to add: If you are using Bambu studio or its derivatives please use Arachne wall generator instead of classic!

Christine
noted! Thank you!

I went up 6% and they fit like a glove now
Stephanie Vonhoene
My cups turned put amazing! I'm printing them for a school halloween party. Can the pencil toppers be used as straw toppers as well?
Christine
hmm, I see! they fit on all my pencils and erasers! do you see a little bulge in the opening of your caps? maybe scale them up by 0.5% and see if they fit then? I just have no way of testing them to fit better because they fit over my pencils π
Jaime
Yes I also noticed this. I tried about 20 different pencils and none would fit.
Christine
Hii!! You would need to scale them up a bit! sometimes if the first few layers are squished itβll decrease the tolerance youβd be able to see a little bulge around the opening, You can use a deburring tool if you have it to widen that area by cutting it away, or you can roll up a piece of sand paper and twist it in the opening as well.
Kirk
I made your pencil toppers which are pretty cool, however the hole for the pencil is too small. I tried three different pencil manufacturers and they both would not fit past the eraser.. Your hole is 7.3mm and my pencils were Eraser 7mm barrel 7.4-7.6mm. Is there a quick fix I can do or do I need to drill them out?
Steph
these are AWESOME!! please more pencil toppers ππ»
Erika Keszey
omg i love the spooky designs I hope we get more ghosties
TDrumm3D
Love the idea of straw toppers

Does the cup hold a standard 12 oz US can?
Christine
I can understand that. I have tested threads in the past, and I found that those bring up issues of their own such as even more tolerance problems, the threads making loud squicky noise after a couple of uses, and it wonβt allow for scaling so the design would be locked to one size. It may be that blender3d doesnβt have the proper tools for making proper threads as well, which is why I am using this alternative snap fit lids.

I printed a 150% cup and 150.5% lid, it is a bit awkward getting the lid on, I can see customers asking about it. You basically push the lid past the first line, and it stays, but feels loose. I can hold the cup upside down without it falling off, but it would feel more natural with a thread.
Christine
is it loose for you?
Mawk
Can we get A thread or notch to better secure the cup lid?
Penguin Family
If you seal it with resin after printing, you can use it as a cup.
Christine
hii!! I donβt recommend using it as a cup to drink from directly, there are many factors that would make this an issue! Iβd recommend finding a plastic insert for it maybe
Smol Bean
Is it safe to drink out of a pla cup? Or would I need a special type of pla?
Lidia Heinzel
Thank youπππ
Hope @ a geeky lil sparrow designs
Ohhhhh that's a fantastic idea!

Jaimie Darr

Christine

CheekyHeeler
I have a friend who would absolutely love these without a skull as well. I know she would like pumpkins if not just plain
Fidgeteria
Love it π
Lidia Heinzel
So cool! π₯° I would love it if there was a version of the mug without a skullπ€©π€©π€©
Hope @ a geeky lil sparrow designs
Okay but hear me out Makes a holes in the caps big enough to be used as straw toppers...... Standard silicone straw toppers are 10 and 12 mm I believe.....
