This project is a chopstick holder which is optimized for high-efficiency printing and peak chopstick holding. It utilizes a curved surface on the top in order to pool together chopsticks to support chopsticks being placed at any location. In addition, it has curved edges in order to allow the user to hold the chopstick holder easier.

This coherent design is small, at a 2 by 1 by .75 in dimensions. It's only supply requirement is any printable filament.

Final Product

Your final product should look something like this. I've duplicated my design a few times but this isn't necessary.

Usage

To utilize this device effectively, position the chopstick holder on a stable surface and rest two chopsticks on it, ensuring that the heads of both chopsticks make contact with the holder. Regardless of their initial placement, the chopsticks will naturally gravitate toward the center of the holder due to its design.
