About this model
Ever bought a cup of take-away coffee and it was so hot that you couldn't even hold the cup? Well, then this is the solution you are looking for. The two parts slot together to form a ring and handle that will hold the paper cup and give you a more traditional cup handle. Print this in a more heat resistant material (PETG or ABS) for best results. The included FreeCAD design file includes a variable in the ring body that can be adjusted to better fit the most common cup sizes where you are. For me 70mm worked fine. The rest of the model is all driven off of that dimension and will adjust accordingly.
