The Juicy Brothers - reliable citrus juicers

DESCRIPTION

Meet the Juicy Brothers!
These two little champs are ready to squeeze every last drop out of you (unless you give them some fruit, of course). The younger brother is perfect for lemons, limes, and smaller oranges, while the older brother is built for bigger oranges and juicy grapefruits. Compact, practical, and always ready to press!

PRINT 

!!IMPORTANT!!

PLA is not the ideal material for this kind of tool. It can handle brief contact with citrus juice, but prolonged exposure may cause discoloration over time. If you plan to leave juice in the container for longer than the squeezing process itself, PETG or another juice-resistant material is a better choice.

Also, avoid PLA CF/GF and PETG CF/GF — you definitely don’t want carbon fiber or glass fiber particles anywhere near something used with food.

!!IMPORTANT!!

The print requires supports under the central core and under the handle.

USAGE

Before using the juicer for the first time, I recommend giving it a quick pass with a hairdryer or heat gun to remove any loose microfibres from the filament. This helps prevent tiny bits from breaking off and ending up in your juice. Then wash the juicer thoroughly with a sponge or brush.

You can safely tilt the juicer to pour out the juice without worrying about the strainer falling out. It fits snugly in place, is easy to remove when needed, and won’t drop out even if you turn the juicer upside down.

If you are having problems with the ANY model sticking to the table during printing, check what you can do:

• Make sure the plate is clean, degreased and dry. If necessary, wash it under warm water with soap/dishwashing liquid and dry it thoroughly with a paper towel.
• You can use special plates with increased adhesive properties, such as Bambu Plate SuperTack or CryoGrip, which will not only give you peace of mind about the success of your print, but also allow you to print at much lower bed temperatures.
• Apply a brim around the model (OTHER tab in Bambu Studio).
• Use a special printing adhesive or even just a regular paper glue stick, which also increases adhesion.
• In extreme cases, you can use spray hair gel (e.g. Hegron), but remember that it is difficult to remove from the plate afterwards to clean it - technical acetone and a spatula/scraper are very helpful. 

If you need help with this print or have a fitting issue that cannot be solved simply by scaling the model, let me know in the comments. I will definitely get back to you :-)
