Start at the mating surface

This project starts with an existing jar rather than a free-form lid. I reverse-engineered its thread, recorded a 1/4-inch pitch and printed the translucent-blue prototype shown in the build story.

Test piece and complete lid

The model set contains the thread-test version and the complete lid. The project photographs show the translucent-blue prototype fitted to the existing jar.
