Can anyone recommend a 3D printing service they may know of, or have used?
Just looking for a few small bits, nothing complex.

There's a company who do a copy of the Nash Bushwhacker spoon, but with a thread on the end. Not sure if they do it themsleves or if they outsource it. Can't remember their name, I'll have a quick look.

EDIT - think they're called allthings3d.

@joe-echo & framey, thank you for the kind offer, much appreciated
I might have cobbled something together but the picture below gives you the idea. I was also thinking about a 3 section but suppose as I've made a 4 I can just use 2 for 1, just means less in the 2 individuals ( I think a 3 way would look good tho!)
It's a Trakker Shallow Glug pot btw, and bodge DeWalt drawer dividers...lol

Is it just the dividers you need then? I'm happy to model something up and do a 3 and 4 section.

Are you aiming to have seperate liquids in each section?
Can you send me some dimensions of the pot?

Looks like they are printing in pla which doesn't have uv resistance and is a cheap print material.

Thanks for the kind offer Joe, Yes, just dividers, my OCD coming to the fore
Actaully it was more than that, it was about separating dark hook baits from light in case they leach/stain, ie, dark brown and white, most likely when adding extra booster, just a guess but not worth the risk. I don't want to be carrying an entire pot of each, there's simply no need for short day sessions etc. I hadn't thought about it from a perspective of glugged baits......you're giving me ideas...ha ha

I hope that makes sense. I did a good search on the net but couldn't see anything re pot dividers hence posting here.

Should be easy enough to do, especially the 4 section. The 3 section would be easy to print but just takes up room when posting.

If I remember correctly the shallow pots are 150ml and 5cm deep, so should have a diameter of 6cm. If you can confirm that I will send over a design and see if you are happy with it. Should only take an hour or so to print a couple.

I will also look at an idea for a properly separate sections so you can glug multiple baits.

Just me thinking aloud Joe, slightly more complicated re the 3 section. 3 vanes connected with a c shape Y piece top and bottom, maybe each arm only 10mm long, the Y need only be a few mm deep re posting.
You are correct re the capacity, I'll take some measurements in a while and get back to you. There is a small central bump in the pot, my efforts just sitting on it but I suppose a indent on the vane would sort it. More work and if I'm honest, not a biggie for me as is.

I use half height tubs instead of the full height pop ups tubs. This means I can get 12 tubs into my popup bag instead of 6.
In the van I'll have a pot or two of my most used/favourite flavours, then if I run out I can top the pots back up.

I mix colours. e.g. I have some pineapple pop ups in yellow, and some in pink. Also different sizes. I mix them up in the same half-height pot as I don't use that flavour much.

Also, with Mainline Frutella the wafters are a lighter colour than the popups, so popups and wafters go in the same tub as I can tell them apart (rig gets checked in the margin if I am not 100% sure)

Not sure if the tubs I use would be glug proof/water tight though. The Korda infusers I bought ages ago when they first came out weren't :( Shame because I thought they would be useful

Are you sure?
