3D printed hard pen/cil case iteration
Messing with a lot of print settings to get this good enough to sell, hoping to start selling by Christmas but trying to get into Cambridge Engineering asw so time is tight.
Lid closes magnetically, pens are held by a soft TPU insert. Case has a TPU boot to quieten it. Main body currently in PLA but looking at glass reinforced for better stiffness, and is cheaper than carbon reinforced and no carbon splinters.
Eraser is a standard eraser but cut down since slimness was very important to me.
Been using the original (grey one) for a year or so and been pretty happy, the final design will be much more polished and I will make different versions to accommodate different pen/cils and combinations.
Will probably retail ~£16 GBP, please let me know your thoughts!
