Description

I have now published a updated and strengthened version 1.1; that replaces both regular and slim can version:

https://makerworld.com/en/models/1901032-can-opener-and-cover-v1-1

 

 

This is the regular can version, if you need the slim can version, it can be found here: https://makerworld.com/en/models/1570217-slim-can-opener-and-cover#profileId-1651356

When I designed it, the slim can I grabbed worked with the original design. But some people just couldn't get it to work. I went through the different cans I had at home and discovered that there is different versions of the slim can. This now is adjusted for the slim can I had at home, and I hope it works for you as well. The diameter of the ring on the slim can is Ø51.6mm and the regular model is Ø53.9 mm.

 

Original Post:

I got the question from a lady if I could create a beer/soda can opener combined with cover and room for a company logo. 

So they could use these at events as giveaways.

This is designed from ground up with a number of iterations in FreeCad. 

 

With this it is easier for people with pain in fingers or someone that is caring about their nails.

You slide it over the opening tab and it snaps into place over the rim of the can. Then you can turn it around as cover to protect against wasps/flies when you are outside.

 

Now the settings in the print profile reflects the experimentation I did around getting a detailed logo in this small place. If you want to print a plain opener you can reset the print profile or change these settings:

  • If you skip text or logo you can reset "Initial Layer" to default and "Resolution"
  • Skirt loops helped if you want a more detailed logo (the first small line started a little fat otherwise)
  • Also using textured plate help hide the imperfections in the print.

You can remove or change the text object in Object explorer:
