Description
Woohoo! A new model! :D
I made this model primarily in TinkerCad for the 2023 Business Card Holders contest [here]. I just barely finished before the contest closed. ^^" The examples were printed on a Dremel Idea Builder 3d20. No supports needed! Assembly instructions are attached.
[UPDATE 17Jan2023] “Base” part adjusted for better support and bigger business card sizes. “Spring_needtwo” adjusted to hook in place better. Taping or gluing the springs to “Base” may help springs remain in place.
[UPDATE 18Jan2023] “Shell” part has been adjusted for better alignment. This update only affected the “Shell” model.
NOTICE: I have come to learn that PLA/plastic springs do lose their tension very quickly. The springs do work initially, but lose the needed rigidity in just a day or two, especially if business cards are left in dispenser overnight. I am currently looking for a longer lasting solution and will update with my findings once I do. Thanks so much for your patience. I'm learning so much every day~ XP
