Golf pencil holder/extender

thingiverse

I've got a stash of golf pencils and notebooks that I always carry with me for jotting down ideas and sketching out designs. Those short pencils can be real hand-crampers, but they're super cheap and fit in tiny spaces. That's why I leave a few scattered around - on my clothes, desks, car, lab, anywhere really. So, I whipped up this little gadget to extend them and stash another one behind it when needed. You could even add an eraser to the end if you wanted to. There's an extra piece at the bottom that helps with bed adhesion; just snip it off with a sharp razor or some side nippers. These are printed in PETG, and I highly recommend printing multiple ones together. I designed them for standard 0.4 mm nozzles (2 shells). Inside, there are tiny bumps to grip the main pencil firmly. My golf pencils measure 7 mm from flat to opposite flat. I picked up a bunch of these at an Office Depot or something similar - they came in a big box with a bunch of them inside. They only cost me 10 bucks if memory serves.
