I could if I was better at the design side of it, the printer can print it, but I can't build the model in the program.
I had to have Msfitoy draw it up in the first place and others to make subtle changes to it!

I did send you silver though, if you use Mobil 1, the funnel matches the bottle perfectly.
I'm of the Pennzoil Platinum Ultra Persuasion :LOL:

Silver is great.
Thank You

So USPS is apparently having tracking troubles if you’re not getting notifications.

Now this, this is service and customer appreciation!
I once asked my incredible chiropractor about why he never advertises while I hear some other chiropractors' commercials all day long on the radio. He said he doesn't need to. He has a large enough satisfied customer base that word of mouth is all he needs. I think Mike has a similar thing going.
There is also a woman in my community with a satisfied customer base.:p?

Very true, if a facebook post comes up showing the dipstick, I can't keep up or a week or more.

Advertising would bury me, it would be a great problem, but I do fine with low volume production.

I have to really thank this whole community, without all the support from THIS forum, this project would not have happened.

The idea started here, the feedback from here helped dial in the design and all the support was the fuel to get it past the prototype phase into production. I absolutely owe it to everyone here!!!

So now would be a good time to make it clear, I originally said the funnels were free just cover the shipping.... :facepalm:

I can't ask any of the early customers who bought the dipstick before I started including the funnel to pay for anything, even just shipping, that's a firm no! They were the first customers and the foundation of my dipstick sales.

Besides, the dipstick is expensive, I'm really gonna charge MORE to the early customers who put me in business for something that I included later for free? That's just not going to happen!
I do thank those who asked about covering the shipping and or paying for the funnel?

Wow, long post, started at 4:30am with a huge cup of coffee:LOL:

Is the printer using G code? I use it on my small CNC machine for my aluminum g** parts. Works out pretty well for me. I may buy a 3D Printer. Need to do my research. What model are you using?

I have a Bambu Carbon X1, it's a decent machine, I like the fact that I can upgrade it to their top spec machine if I want.

Wish my 2024 had one.

On the plus side, much easier to check on the gen6 models than the gen 5.

Got mine, Thank You Mike you even matched the color of my truck. Hopefully I do not cause others to ask for a color match, because this was just by chance. To take the time to design and print these is way above great customer service. It is too bad you were not a Ford Engineer then we would have even a better truck. Now how can I pay you for the shipping cost?

Okay cool, there should be a bunch to hit mailboxes this week. Either light blue or dark blue and one silver?
The funnels are on me, thanks for being customers!
