3D model description

Super Simple, I have a ton of Bic pens but always thought they looked a bit shit. So I mocked up some nicer looking alternatives.

The Idea is that you can simply remove the ink cartridge from an ordinary Bic pen and slide it into new printed pen.

Main inspiration is from the beautiful work seen in the video below made by Altair Engineering;

Feel free to comment if have any questions and Happy Printing!

3D printing settings

Nozzle: 210-220Β°c
Bed: 50Β°c
Speed: 50mm/s
Support: No
Notes: I Print mine standing on its tip and use a fine quality (0.06-0.1mm layers) and slow speed (<30mm/s).
Don't use any supports however I do use a rather big brim due to the small contact with the build plate. I also print at 100% infill just to add some weight, however that's an optional thing.

I don't have one (yet) but I would love to print this on a SLA printer so if you do please post a photo of it, would love to see it!
