Description

This is a portable pill container, about the size of a pack of lifesavers. It takes less than 5m of filament (~11g) and prints pretty quickly. The cap threads on to seamlessly match the decorative pattern on the outside. 

The mouth is a just shy of 14mm, so it should be large enough for most pills. Obviously the capacity will vary based on the pills you use. The threads are triple start with a 10mm pitch. Normally I can print threads with 100um of clearance, but this one needed 200um for some reason, so keep that in mind. 4-1 has fewer twists and larger chamfers than 4-2, but other than that they are pretty similar. STEP files are included if you want to play around with the model. 

I think it looks especially nice in black with a color change around 62mm to add some contrast underneath the cap.
