This screws on to the top of 1lb Hodgdon type powders (Hodgdon, Winchester, Accurate, Shooters World, etc) and allows you to pour powder back into the bottle with less of a mess. Perfect for returning powder from your powder throw after reloading or refilling your 1lb bottle from an 8lb bottle.
This version contains a screen to filter out items. Ever drop something into your powder and it sinks strait to the bottom? This will help either prevent that or retrieve it afterwards.
Print Settings:
- I used supports only on the underside of the lid (the horizontal overhang).
- I used 0.16 line height for the one in the picture
- This type of model is particularly prone to having ugly seams. Unless you use scarf seams, you're either going to have a seam line or “zits”. The print in the picture used random seams with scarfs in Orca slicer, which works pretty well.
- Some people struggle with printing threads. If you've never printed threads before you might want to isolate the cap and test print. Generally they are not difficult but I use all walls when printing threads. With 0..20 that's 7 walls on the cap section. I split the settings so I'm not using that many walls for other areas.
Enjoy!
