Squid Drink Koozie .... and Squid Bank

My friend's birthday was comming up, so i deigned him a Squid shaped drink Koozie (his nickname is Squidward). All the files are posted on thingivers ... http://www.thingiverse.com/thing:2201799 ... as well as scaling conversion for common drink container sizes. I printed mine on my Luzbot Taz5 with 3mm Hatchbox PLA.

I also converted the Squid Koozie into a Squid Bank. It features a coin slot on the back, and a screw in opening on the bottom to access your money. You can download the bank files at ... http://www.thingiverse.com/thing:2208911

I send Joel the 3D Printing Nerd a Redbull Sized Squid Koozie. Its a long video, but the link below starts just before the Squid Koozie part ...
