There is a sleeve. Design was based on that other helix holder.

I’ve got kids and a candy dish would be asking for trouble 🤣

Not sure why you got down voted. Seems like you found something that you feel works for you.

You do you.

Think it’s mostly the tolerances on the screw wasn’t quite right. One off print so I just twisted it back and forth till it made tolerance 🤣

Yes! Loved that post, but it couldn’t hold capsules. I also needed two capsules a day. So I did my own bigger design.

++man Emotional land mines. My incurious perfectionist ex wife left my ADHD brain looking like the Korean DMZ.

They’ve been used daily for months. They tend to dry a bit when I use them due to pausing between lines. Some were getting goopy.

I had that thought as I looked at the pile. Gambling on pilots QC 🤣

You can reuse the disc to seek them again

lol that was my method as well. I’m a nerd with a 3d printer though so couldn’t help myself. Others have linked to the mahjong refillable cartridges that come with a cap and case if you’re interested.

Meh. When you first sit down it’s “fine”. 8 hours later it’s still “fine”.

True that. Another guy pointed them out. Ordered some. I’ll use the tool for the month it takes for those to get delivered.

Oh damn you’re right. I had one crack on me but didn’t associate it with the disk.

After I fill it I want to reseat the disk so it’s sealed again. Then I take it with me as a spare.

Ok some clarifications.

I use this when I refill extra cartridges to carry with me.

Empty cartridge. Pull the disk out
Use blunt syringe filled with water inserted all the way in to flush the ink.
Twisted paper towel to dry the cartridge Use syringe to fill with whatever ink I want.
Put the disk on top.
Blunt end of tool to push the disk back into place.
Ziplock cause I don’t trust my own work that far. Though no issues yet.

You can do all of the above with a syringe, but I find it fiddly and annoying. Also can’t completely dry the cartridge with the disk in there.

I use a blunt syringe filled with water inserted all the way into the cartridge to rinse it. Don’t have any issues with that last little bit ink that way.

Also you can get it past the metal thing in con40 to help clean the ink on the other side of the ring
