Satisfy your sweet tooth twice! First, drink a 250mL can of your favorite beverage; then, upcycle the can into this mini desktop candy machine!
Any candy that is up to 20mm in diameter will work perfectly. M&Ms, Skittles, and Gobstoppers were thoroughly tested numerous times to ensure optimal can-to-tray delivery and super sweet tooth satisfaction.
Included are two variants of the design. If you happen to have a dual extrusion 3D printer, like the BCN3D Sigmax, you can merge the models together for a magical multicolor print! I made mine on a single extruder Prusa i3 using ColorPrint to add the color changes.
You will need 2 spools of PLA, an empty 250mL Esso/Red Bull style can, a box cutter (*be very careful*), and candy!
