Even Shorter Toothpaste Squeezer

Decided to try printing up one of the hundreds of these in Thingiverse. Liked the general size and look of Hallonhatt's version. After printing the parts, I decided to remake it a little more to my liking.
I made it much narrower as I wanted it as small and tight to the product as possible. I narrowed the slot width to squeeze more paste out. I added flats to the bottom so it would stand up after half used. I got rid of the cap and added snap hooks so now its just 2 parts. And I softened the handle slightly. Fits 4.1oz toothpaste tube.
Never used one before and just printed it. Once I start using it and go thru a whole tube, I may revisit it and update it further. For now, it is what it is.
I printed mine in ABS. The pin was printed horizontally with the thumb lever horizontal and slit vertical. The Housing on end with star shaped hole on the bed. Supports everywhere.
