Tatting Shuttle Case

This is a work in progress. It's a container shaped like a tatting shuttle. The inside container part isn't very big. It could hold crochet hooks or tatting needles.

I printed it in both wood PLA and blue ABS (both pictured).

I stood the main body on end, opening side down, to print.

I printed the top with curve top up and used supports.

I plan on improving the top to have threads.

Post-Printing =============

After printing, I sanded and painted with primer filler, sanded again with 2000 grit sandpaper, then painted with white primer. I used alcohol ink for the wood grain look and resin to make it shine.
