Fly Fishing Tippet Holder

thingiverse

I didn't want to pay for a simple tippet holder and couldn't find one I liked on any of the 3D printing sites, so I tried to design my own in Tinkercad. This was my first time trying to do anything in 3D modeling, so the design is SUPER simple, but it works. The design is based off a tippet holder I saw in a sporting goods store. All you need in addition to the printed parts is a little paracord (length based on your preference) and a small carabiner. To assemble, I threaded both ends of the paracord through the center hole of the smaller rod and had one end coming out each side. I tied a knot in each end to keep it in place. Next, I threaded the looped end of the paracord through the hole in one end of the longer rod and attached the carabiner. To add the tippet, you just take off the carabiner and slide it on. Super easy, but effective for what I needed.
