Sharpmaker Rod Minimal Case

I got additional stones for my Sharpmaker (diamond and ultrafine) and had been carrying them separately in another bag. So I decided to design my own case that keeps all the rods together as compactly as possible, while also leaving the rods easily visible.

I've printed the regular case, though I've added a hollowed out case that may be preferred to avoid any unnecessary stringing inside the case.

I printed my version with a 0.6mm nozzle at 0.4mm layer height, but of course a 0.4mm nozzle should be fine too. No supports needed if you print the case vertically.

Recommendation

Before printing the full case, to avoid wasting filament, I recommend printing the lid and cut-off case included in the 3MF file.

1. Check that the rods fit properly. They shouldn't be too tight nor too loose, erring on the side of loose to avoid your rods getting stuck.
2. Check that the lid fits and isn't too tight or too loose.

Adjust print size % by 1-2% should be enough. Once you've got the right size, you can print the full size case (the lid you already printed doesn't need to be printed again).
