Look What I Made Today

This was really fun - a pencil holder with my business name. The letters were printed separately, then each one fit into its spot on the box. The tolerance was exactly right - no glue needed and those letters have no wiggle room.


This was printed in several parts - each letter is separate and the pencil holder was printed as one part with a color change after the base.
This model required some trial testing first - to see if the pencil hole would work, and to see if the letters would fit. The first trial showed I needed to leave more space around each letter.

The trials showed that with 0.15mm offsets all around each letter, they fit perfectly. Now everyone in my family wants their own...
