Description

Backstory

After simply 3D printing the Sponge Holder from craigwedel, I found myself in a debate with a friend regarding the general utility of sponge holders. He adamantly rejected the idea of their necessity and remained unconvinced by my arguments regarding faster drying and reduced bacteria growth. Being an MD and scientist, he was determined to rigorously test my claims, going so far as to purchase a high-precision scale and agar plates.

 

Not willing to concede defeat, I resolved to create a new sponge holder model, over-engineering it to highlight its advantages.

 

I'll update this description as soon as we have results.

Advantages of this model

  • Spiked fins provide ample surface area for the sponge, enhancing exposure to airflow.
  • Back holes facilitate air circulation, channeling and expelling moisture.
  • Sloped tray surface ensures water runoff.
  • Raised rim for convenient placement of the sponge.
  • Elevated base prevents moisture accumulation beneath the tray.
  • Easy printing with no need for support, brim, or assembly.
  • The model can be easily scaled to accommodate your preferred sponge size.
