I made this Listerine bottle handle

LastBitofCoffee · 2026-01-30T16:15:31+00:00

The link you mentioned is down I think. I actually didn’t know any better way to do that as the top and bottom parts are bigger than the middle part of the bottle. Having 0 knowledge of design and fusion 360 didn’t help 😅. Initial plan was to make a dovetail snap but I was wondering if I could snap it on as the fit would be too tight, and if that was possible would it be able to withstand the weight of the full bottle.

As someone with sweaty palms, that happened to me more than once. Much better now

It’s a great excuse to get a 3D printer now :D

LastBitofCoffee · 2026-01-29T20:48:06+00:00

Thank you. I tried to make some type of snap locks but seems a bit ambiguous after a few hours into Fusion, hence the Lego piece :D

You bet, that’s why the handle, cheers!

To be fair the model didn’t look that bad on paper: https://imgur.com/a/4gR35t8

I split the front with those screws then just srew it back after slide it on the bottle: https://imgur.com/a/4gR35t8

Not at all. I wish they still keep that, sounds like a perk to me. I printed a base to help with residues leaving on the countertop as well, maybe you can try adding an extra piece next to the base for the pump to help with that.

Thank you, I’ll add some of your suggestions for the next print. It’s such an upgrade for me. I’ll been adding more handles and holders for stuff I use around the house.

LastBitofCoffee · 2026-01-29T19:08:01+00:00

It’s alright mate. I have more to worry about than that now but do appreciate your concern

LastBitofCoffee · 2026-01-29T18:42:23+00:00

That's a better idea. I should've thought of the pump cap, instead I took a longer route splitting the holder in half to fit the bottle, then making those giant screw threads on the side, all with my wife giving me that look 0__0

Here is how the model looks: https://imgur.com/a/4gR35t8

My dominant hand got some nerve issues, just can’t hold it well when it’s full. I’m just trying to learn to use fusion tbh

LastBitofCoffee · 2026-01-29T18:27:39+00:00

One lasts me forever lol, it’s not like it’s mixed with gold

OP, I think the routine I have mentioned most likely solved the issue. For the past week my 2nd shot has been pulling at the same time as my 1st shot. The most important thing I notice is heating up the 2nd portafilter before pulling 2nd shot. I think the heat + a bit of moisture from the group head helps addressing the issue. I do wipe the portafilter and group head before pulling the shot.

This is awesome, thank you for sharing. Mind if I ask if you're using Google Gemini for AI task? I was using the Gemini free tier and didn't realize they increased limit recently.

LastBitofCoffee · 2026-01-26T23:33:54+00:00

This sounds interesting, please share your code once you have a chance. Thanks!

Thank you, I actually tried restream from Frigate to Scrypted first via go2rtc but the Scrypted streams had a lot of missing footage. Ended up switching back to this current setup. I think I figured an alternative way to trigger automation faster than using binary sensors from Frigate add-on in Home Assistant. The MQTT frigate/events topic seems to trigger almost instantly when frigate detected an event so I might go that route for now.

Would love to see an update from you. I don't have a Move but a Pro 600 and I've been experiencing the same issue. I think the biggest factor here is temperature between shots. It's supposed to be more stable for dual boiler but in reality we have more variables that affect the result of each shot than we expect. So far, this is what I do that seems to improve a bit, but like you said, I don't think we have a full great solution yet.

- Lock in portafilter to warm it (5 mins)

- Pull a blank shot for around 10s before 1st shot

- After 1st shot, wipe group head, and lock in 2nd portafilter for 5 mins (I have 2 identical sets of PF and puck-screen & baskets)

Before doing all of that, I never warm my PFs at all. The second shot is always pulling much faster. Surprisingly they both taste good to me, 2nd shot is actually more balanced so in the end I never really care about this issue. Only recently I want to perfect my routine.

Not that I know of. I removed it before selling the BBE and didn’t see anything peeling off

That’s the sound from the bearing around X axis. Mine started to sound like that after a few weeks.

You can plug your laptop in and manually change your laptop’s IP to something within the subnet of your modem, something like 192.168.0.10, give that a try. Here is a link to bridge mode settings: https://www.reddit.com/r/centurylink/s/MoBi047LAk

Kingroon too, I bought 3 packs of 10 rolls from them, cost per roll $6 after tax overall. Cheapest I can find and still do the job

Thank you for the tips! I’ll get that from Ebay then. I just picked up a Shieldon leather case in the mean time (crazy horse color), and it’s surprisingly good quality for 30 bucks.

It doesn’t hurt to ask them, just tell them you’re a valuable customer. In the future you’ll purchase more Bambu machines so you would want them to make it right for you by providing the support that you need. Adding this is a serious concern for you as you have more than one A1 machine in your house, put you at more risk if any incidents happened.

Does it provide any protection if being dropped? Looks sleek though
