I’m working on designing a custom built 3D printed container to store Tear Aid in a repair kit. Any input or suggestions about size or anything else?

What a cool machine. I would say the container should be sized similarly to the ones used currently.
That looks great and the knurling will be good for cold wet fingers. Would it be a good idea to put a small lip on the inside of the lid to help keep the contents dry? I am thinking like a nalgene bottle.
Our Tear-Aid container is now available on River Hardware!

Zach! The file worked perfect! My daughter thinks it’s her new water bottle so double duty! Seriously, I think It so rad you embraced an open source model to 3D printing & shared your file. Thank you!
Trying to think of other printed objects that be helpful to the community. Maybe others could upload their models to Submarine Hole as helpful objects & tools to whitewater boaters. I tweaked and refined a B7 valve wrench which I thought was a cool application for 3D printing. It certainly came in handy when I didn’t have time to order and receive a valve wrench before a recent trip on the Deschutes. I’d be happy to share it too.

I’m so stoked to see a photo of your printed Tear Aid container. Thank you so much for sharing. Yes if you have the file for the B7 wrench that would be awesome.
There are some other things I’m working on and I’ll post here as they evolve to get feedback adn share the files.

@Zach.Collier just wanted to give you an update, I tried to upload the valve wrench file and there seems to be limitations on file types the S.H. allows to be uploaded? I have the wrench in both .3mf and .STL formats.
Can you upload them somewhere else and share a link here?
