About this print
A handle designed to fit over a standard 12-ounce drinks can, commonly used with beer cans. The open cut-out at the front means the user's mouth does not contact the plastic when drinking, and a textured thumb area provides a more secure grip. A hole in the base allows the can to be pushed out easily when finished. PETG is a sensible choice as it tolerates contact with food and drink, and handles the condensation from a cold can without degrading.

Does print without support.
Sleek can just added.

It's designed for the 12oz can which has a diameter of 2.6'' or 6.6 cm.
The cut-out was added so that your mouth wouldn't touch it while drinking, and save material of course.
The thumb area had a modifier without the top layer so it could have a surface with more friction.
The hole at the bottom was added so you can push the can out.
Update 7/12: I added a sleek can version. I didn't have a can when I designed it, so the size is a bit too tight but still works.

Printing Can Holder / Handle
For Can Holder / Handle we would normally reach for PETG — it is tougher and more heat-resistant than PLA, ideal for parts that take load or live somewhere warm. We set the layer height, wall count, infill and supports to suit the model and how you will use it, and those choices are already priced into your instant quote. Want a specific colour or material? Tell us and we will match it where we can.
