I stumbled upon the great model by LK74 but wasn't entirely happy with some of the design decisions. I ended up redesigning the entire thing from scratch, while keeping a lot of the measurements of the original design.

Especially the bridging and thin bottom wall ended up causing me problems, while printing this with a high temperature material. Although it did finish, the bottom wasn't entirely sealed. I didn't like the idea of printing it in PLA, since it's likely gonna get quite filthy and I wanted to be able to throw it into the dishwasher, if need be.

This is my attempt of a remix with some minor improvements:

  • Improved printability
  • Added some chamfers to make it look and feel a little nicer
  • Bridging reduced significantly
  • Bottom thickness increased
  • Size increased slightly to accomodate bigger tea bags
  • Slightly increased grip on mug

Thanks again to LK74 for sharing their original model!
