Flexible TPU Keyring

Information
As an owner of keys, you realise there are times when you need to hang them up somewhere or hook things to them.
This is the ideal solution.
Using TPU, I have designed an excellent (pats self on own back) keyring, and it prints flat on the bed.
Sizes
- 185mm
- 210mm
- 235mm
- 260mm (not available using A1 mini)
How-To
If you have never tried printing with TPU before, this is an ideal project to try your hand at it. It takes around just 20 minutes per strap. Give the bed time to cool and you may need to use a scraper to lift one end. Then slowly pull from the plate and you are good to go.
When printed, you simply take the two ends and fold them together, placing the cap over the two. This is a nice tight fit and requires no other fastening, no glue, staples, wizardry - nothing. Then run the keyring hoop through the hole in the cap that marries with the strap ends.
Usage
You can then hook the loop to door knobs, coat hooks, backpacks, or anywhere else when they are at rest.
Print in multiple colours to denote your set of keys from those of other family and friends.
