Maker's comments:

Printed at 100% infill gave good results. Initial testing revealed that the hole width was too large so smaller versions were made which functioned much better. I decided to put both versions up in case the original sizes are needed for tubes with thicker walls. However, for your standard toothpaste tube I recommend printing the smaller size first (medium 60x1mm).

Any questions/suggestions? Please comment down below and I'll be happy to help in any way I can.
