You must print the ‘MAKERBOTTLE’ file in PETG filament

Nozzle Temp:~240C
Bed Temp:~80C

You must Print the ‘TPU CAP’ in TPU filament

Notes:

-The TPU Cap is made with what I like to call “Negative Tolerance” where it is slightly smaller than the diameter of the bottle throat, giving it a friendly squeeze on the bottle to keep it watertight even upside down! Scale up or down slightly to get it perfect for your printer.

-Settings can be changed to fit your individual needs but I do recommend them for the best results

-Please share your prints!

Good idea, but 3d printing isn’t food safe. Even with foodsafe filaments, the nozzle leaves impurities in prints

The designer has replied

@Osprey

Modern nozzles don’t contain a significant amount of lead and the amount of impurities left in the prints are minuscule at most. If you want to drink water out of a 3D print you will be fine in most cases.

Replying to @Osprey :

I was more concerned about long-term use, any imperfections like stringing combined with inedible coloring additives could cause problems. By nozzle impurities, I meant burnt filament from previous prints. While the model is well-designed, the pores produced by 3d printing also seem like they could easily build up bacteria.

Strength Issue

The designer has replied

@Osprey

I'm sorry to hear you had issues with this design. What was the strength issue?

@PileofRedstone

I'm not sure how to edit my response, but I wanted to move it to a 5 star. The issue was on my side in my setting. I forgot to change them from my last print! 5/5 Stars! would recommend!
