blinds dongle

thingiverse

Home builders often install cheap white vinyl blinds that eventually crack or lose their parts over time. The weak link in this setup is usually the plastic piece that hangs at the end of a cord, prone to breaking easily. I was curious about printing a replacement without using expensive materials like white filament. Fortunately, a draft print (0.3mm) with no infill still turned out well enough for my purposes. Many others have created their own custom replacement pieces, but none of them perfectly matched the original design.
