Keep your beverage free of insects and sand with the Can Mate beverage cover!

The Can Mate is a print-in-place dual hinge can cover to keep insects and debris out of your drinks (12oz standard or slim cans) while you are enjoying outdoor activities. The hinges are print-in-place, requires no support and print in less than an hour on an X1C.

The Can Mate in Action

There are four print profiles included. The two print profiles for PETG are highly recommended for outdoor usage in the hot sun. Light colors are also recommended. I tested a light grey printed in PETG by leaving it out in 90-degree Fahrenheit, full sun for two hours with no warping.

Please Note: These are designed to be print-in-place with no support enabled. Due to this, you may get some slight stringing on the top of the print (bottom of the Can Mate). This is expected and it can easily be removed by hand or with a deburring tool.
