Description
Have you ever walked outside and wondered whose car it was making that infernal noise?
And then realized that it was your car?
Or found that you had accidentally unlocked your car without realizing it?
This doesn't happen to me a lot, but it does happen. Because I have a car key fob with buttons to unlock my door and set off an alarm. And sometimes, when it is in my pocket, and the conditions are just right with how I'm sitting and / or whatever else is in my pockets, one of the buttons gets pressed.
This happened again recently, so I finally did something about it.
Nothing special – didn't need supports or brim or anything like that. And I used my regular defaults.
I assume that car key fobs come pretty much in the same standard size. This model fits on my fob (14 mm x 36 mm x 45+ mm) just right, with just the right amount of friction.
If your fob is a different size, it should be a simple matter in any standard slicer to scale it to fit your fob. And at 8 grams / 25 minutes, if you have to iterate once or twice, it's not the end of the world.
