Description
This stylish barrel holds six Glencairn whiskey glasses for those moments where you find yourself with five friends, or preferably six different types of whiskey. The glasses store securely in a holder, that floats in the middle of the barrel keeping your glasses clean and safe. The barrel consists of two parts connected with a simple five-start thread, allowing for easy access and secure closure without fiddling with complicated threads.
The middle stem that holds the glasses has three options:
- A simple support stem with no extra features, can be printed minimal effort
- A rotating stem that uses a 8x22x7mm ball bearing to help your glasses rotate beautifully when the barrel is open
- A LED-powered light module that lights up when the barrel is opened using a normally-closed push button
The middle stem fixes in place with five 5mm tall heat-set inserts for 3mm screws and 3mm machine screws, ten are needed in total. Optionally you can glue the stem in place using cyanoacrylate glue (superglue).
Included are two simple barrel stands allowing for displaying your barrel on a shelf where your guests can marvel at the wonders of modern FDM printing, until you pull it off the shelf and have everyone bask at the glorious light of the 5mm LED.
All additional hardware is optional, you can print a fully functioning glass holder without any soldering. Heat-set inserts are recommended over gluing the parts in place. Hardware needed is listed in the assembly guide.
