Toothpaste Squeezer with Ratchet Function

I wanted a toothpaste tube squeezer with a built-in ratchet function.

 While there are many great models out there, none of them had the visual look I was looking for. 

Because of that, I decided to design my own model from scratch.

 After printing and testing many different iterations, I have finally landed on a design that I am happy with, and that prints predictably using standard settings.

Print Profile Information

Three styles included

- Standard (No pattern, just the blank model for easy customization in slicer)

- Pattern (With hex pattern on the sides for a modern look)

- Pattern & Text (Hex pattern, and “Smile" / "Enjoy life” on the sides)

Print Settings

While the model is designed to print without specific settings I recommend these few modifications for the best results.

All parts (Global settings):

 Wall loops = 3-4

 Infill pattern = gyroid

For the main body with pattern: 

Outer wall line width = 0.3 mm
