Mask Strap 2 Piece Connector

Prolonged mask and elastic wear causes significant strain on the back of the ear, prompting the creation of an innovative solution to alleviate this issue. The design features a natural curve that contours perfectly around the back of the neck, providing a comfortable fit. When not needed, the mask can be easily pulled down around the neck, then quickly restored to its original position as required. Elastic loops are threaded up through a strategically placed hole and wrapped securely around each connector loop, ensuring a snug and stable fit in place for use. This clever design allows users to enjoy hassle-free wear without compromising comfort or functionality. To facilitate easy removal from the raft, I printed the pieces on their sides, which significantly reduced the risk of damage or warping. Printing 12 pieces at a time proved to be an efficient process, taking approximately three hours to complete. A moderate infill percentage of 25% was utilized for optimal results.
