Ember Mug Lid Replacement (Doesn't Close)

Ember Mug Lid Replacement (Doesn't Close)

Description

In january I bought an Ember mug from Amazon Mexico, I love coffee and i thought it was awesome. Sadly though, I went to a coffee shop here in Mexico, where I live, and the lady served the coffee beyond the adviced mark and closed the mug. When I pushed the lid to open the mug the high pressure made the coffee spill in a super intense explosion. Later I realized my mug lid broke due to the high pressure. It was a pain trying to get a Mug Lid replacement here in Mexico because Ember does not officially sell Mugs here. A few months later my sister went to the US so she got me one after I ordered one to her hotel. In the meantime my mug was unusable because I could not find any lid that was able to replace the broken one. After I had my replacement I thought it'd be nice if I could make a 3D design so it doesn't happen to anyone again... or at least it doesn't happen to those who have a 3D printer available. I hope this piece is useful for you guys. THIS DESIGN is not completed, I still need a way to replace the open-close mechanism but think is not easy to get a spring (food grade metal) that easy so I'm still thinking on another way of sealing the mug, hope to finish it in a few weeks.
