Collapsible Rod Holder

thingiverse

Designed these collapsible rod holders as my very first parametric project, with the goal of printing them in a single piece that includes functioning hinges and a slide lock. To set them up, simply flex the top and bottom along their edges to crack the first layer and stand them upright. The built-in slide mechanism keeps them from collapsing while they're in use. For added stability, feed a rubber band through the middle hole of each holder and secure it on both ends.
