Thanks for the rating and the heads up I figured that may be the case for some noodles. I’ll add in the description that you may need resize the model some to fit your noodle.

Replying to @user_1981431750 :

Yeah, I can; in the slicer, click on the symbol shown in the first photo and then change the scaling referred to in the second photo up or down a percentile. The base size of the part that you insert in the noodle is 36mm or 1.41 inches. If you have any trouble, measure the hole of the noodle, and I'll let you know how much to decrease or increase the scaling.

printed ok for the most part. the handles are really thin and dont fit even older kids hands very well. the toddlers love them though

@LordMegaMonkey

Thanks for the feed back. I’ll scale up some the handles and some of the other parts to make them better for bigger hands. Then upload another profile for bigger hands.

@CelticDragon

I did a set of scaled up handles with the part that inserts into the pool noodle at 100%, and even then the handles are really thin for larger kids hands. Id suggest making the round handle part a lot wider around so it fits better in a gripped hand. My oldest son has a big pool so Ive been making a lot of the pool handles for his house too. the handles being much bigger around make them a lot easier for bigger kids/adults to hold and swing/play with. It should also make them a bit sturdier (helpful for rambunctious play)

print came out great. one thing to be aware of though is the noodles I have have a much smaller hole than this is made for. so I’ll have to tweak that for the future ones.
