I recently made these DK barrel pen holders for a work buddy. Thought I would share since they turned out pretty cool! Let me know what you think.
Make them a bit bigger and add a coin slot, it could be a cool little change barrel… Was this made with multiple parts or a single extruder? Looks really nice though.

That would be easy to do, but I don’t really have cash or coins on hand much haha. Edit: This was done using a single extruder, I just paused and swapped as needed.

Another idea could be a round insert to hold switch cartridges around the edge, and it could come out with the lid. A DK-themed barrel has so many uses and would make awesome gifts for gamer friends. 
@Olin
I think there are versions like that out there, but I’m the type who prefers keeping my games in their own cases on a shelf. Still, a neat idea!

Looks like this model, but with a lid?
@Olin
Close, but not exactly. The one I found is on Cults3D, and I like that one a lot more than this Thingiverse one.
Oops, I forgot to mention that I’m your work buddy!

Hey big chief, forgot to call in and say I’d be late! This other person is just pretending to be me. I was just totally amazed by your awesome DK barrel pen holders you gave me!
Anyway, I was thinking you could send me one in the mail! Since I won’t be in the office right away, why not mail it!? Don’t worry about the address, just DM me and I’ll give you my legit address. It might seem like a weird location, but that’s just my PO Box… or something like that!

Damn… those transparent ones are really cool! Hope your buddy liked them.
@Jamie
Haha, I’m a kitchen manager, it’s in my blood. I’ll let you off the hook this time. But next time…
Those are sick!
Epic!!!
Nice prints! Did you design them or are the STLs available online?

This specific STL can be found on Cults3D for a few bucks, I’m nowhere near skilled enough to make my own files haha.
Very cool!
Looks like it was made by Diddy.

The initials still fit!
Why does your friend need so many DK barrels?
…Is your friend an evil crocodile by any chance? Just curious.
