This lens...e container suits hard contact lenses. It prints well in both ABS and PLA. I have the ABS one in use without any problem. I don't yet know if the conditioning solution will react with PLA.
The lids can be printed upside-down, if you prefer to remove support material from the top. But I don't like the looks of the result then.
A possible enhancement to this design would be a coarser thread; it's cross-section is now a trapezium, base 1 mm., height 0.4 mm. and sides at an angle of 60 degrees. So far this works well.
- 4 gr. blue, for the left cap (0.48 m. @ 2.85mm.)
- 4 gr. red, for the right cap... (0.48 m. @ 2.85mm.)
