UP balloon house keychain holder with x4 dedicated balloon key hooks. 

 

Each balloon key hook has a magnet inside to hold your keys easily when you get home. 

 

Fully assembled (without the keychains) the whole unit measures: 457 x 223.5 x 4mm (18 x 8.8 x 0.16") approx.

Each keychain measures: 32 x 20 x 6mm (1.259 x 0.787 x 0.236")

 

The model uses x8 magnets in total: x1 in each keychain, and x4 in the keychain holder. I have designed it to use 6 x 3mm magnets everywhere, which allow enough holding power for the average car key and set of house keys. 

 

After printing, I assembled each part with super glue (Ethyl 2-cyanoacrylate) which holds very well to the PLA material. The balloon and house parts have a dovetail joint to provide some mechanical strength to the joint. 

 

As I made this before I purchased my AMS, I printed in White PLA and used acrylic paint to paint each section a different colour to produce the final product. However, if you have an AMS you could colour the parts with whatever colours you have available. Each area of the model is recessed 0.3mm so it is easy to colour within Bambu Studio. I will be releasing a multi-coloured version soon, so watch this space!

 

To mount it to the wall, I used x4 velcro command strips evenly spaced on the back once fully assembled. 

 

I hope you enjoy the model! 

 

Please let me know what you like or dislike and I can release updates in the future based on feedback. 

 

Happy printing!
