Extra Annoying Gift Tube

Do you need to give someone a gift? Do you want to annoy them at least a little as well? This gift tube is just what you need.

This takes my Annoying Gift Tube one step further. Yes, you still have to unscrew an annoyingly large amount of threads. This one is likely to stump your recipient for at least a few seconds because halfway through unscrewing the middle tube, the threads change direction! You begin by unscrewing counterclockwise as usual, but eventually you have to switch to unscrewing clockwise or it will never open.

There are four outer tube options. One of them is blank so you can customize it with your own text in the slicer.

Assembly

Just remember that when you put this together, the inner tube has reversed threads. Also, the first set of threads for the middle tube are reversed. When it stops going in, just start twisting in the opposite direction to get it in the rest of the way.

Printing tips:

The longest bridge is 25mm. I've included profiles for both with support and without. On my printer, the one with supports is a little neater, but without supports looks pretty good. Make your own decision on supports based on your experience with your own printer.

If you're not using one of the provided print profiles, 5% infill is plenty (I used grid) and the regular 2 walls will work great.
