Size: 76 mm (3") cube. …………………… All containers share (within reason) common walls for the most compact shape and the minimum filament use. How to use: fill all the way up for the correct volume for each container. We printed at 0.1 mm layer, 12% fill, 0.2 mm layer should also be fine. Supports: NONE. …………………… Enjoy …………………… Make it in silicone : tbd, we need something solid, the winning material now is a compound commonly used in the food industry: it's extremely strong, survives the heat of a dishwasher, and it is FDA approved. It's much more expensive than a "regular" plastic, but well worth the price for the performance we need. Make it in stainless : yes, after we reach break-even volumes in plastic. We don't want to get over our heads with separate production lines unless we have sufficient funds to control the process; startups are expensive. We already have a large number of stainless quotes, and we may introduce metals before the end of the campaign. Cup size : my personal hell, with so many definitions of the cup. Good news: the difference between the “legal” and the “customary” US cup is around 1%, so whatever we choose it shouldn’t make a big difference. For cup definition enthusiasts: there are 20+ of them in use throughout the world; the current bakercube is using the best option to get started. Larger cubes (I assume starting at 2 cups): sure, after we take care of the regular and the mini version. Europe : yes, we’ll be shipping there. Canada : Qui, bien sûr. MiniCube : After it’s big brother is delivered, we need to take it one step at the time. Volume Discounts : We'll offer volume discounts and early birds… with the shipping cost of multiple bakercubes close to the cost of shipping of a single bakercube. Specs : Dishwasher safe, holds liquids, food grade, FDA safe, BPA-free... Yes, that's the plastic we selected, it's commonly used in the food industry. Emails in the survey : we'll use them exclusively to let you know when the campaign is ready. …………………… The bakercube(TM). https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=rRR7TU2lqPo https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=zIshjS7lMz4 https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=gMdZ2zxTC4U https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=emeuOKY9KPA https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=tcQJkn1AKK4 https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=cRhB96lxmQo https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=o2TWxKynqsg https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=emeuOKY9KPA https://youtu.be/o2TWxKynqsg https://youtu.be/3zpJECnf30U https://youtu.be/VBXIiQzLI-w https://youtu.be/cRhB96lxmQo https://youtu.be/BC7PmCXIlcc https://youtu.be/VBXIiQzLI-w
