Key Holder

I'm excited to share my first project upload, and I hope you'll forgive me if there are any mistakes along the way. I designed this model using Inventor and printed it on my trusty Anet A8. With a height of 24cm, I knew it would take a while to print, so I decided to split it into two halves, which I then glued together with some serious strength. To make printing easier, I recommend rotating the features so that the ring is at the base in both halves - trust me, it's worth the extra effort. After all, you want to save time and avoid a giant mess, right? With a layer height of 0.17mm, shell thickness of 1.2 mm, and 20% fill, I estimate the total print time to be around 8 hours - not bad for a first attempt! By the way, I used a scale factor of 100x when designing with Inventor, which means that everything is in millimeters. When I opened it up in CURA, however, it was scaled down by a factor of 100x - don't worry, it's an easy fix. If you're curious about the dimensions, just check out the picture for all the details.
