Pencil Caps (Lead Protectors)

prusaprinters

<p>UPDATE 11/6/2018: Thanks to a suggestion in the comments, I uploaded a second version that has a hole in the top in case your lead breaks or falls off while in the cap and you can't get it out.</p> <p>I was inspired to design this pencil cap when my pencil lead broke while inside my school bag. But now, thanks to the pencil cap, the lead will never break again while not in use, I will never be pricked grabbing for one, and my other stuff will be protected. It is very easy and quick to print and it slides on to pretty much all pencils and colored pencils.</p> <p>The idea behind this design is that with the cap on, the lead never touches anything, not even the cap, thereby making it impossible for the lead to break. It has been successfully tested with multiple pencils and the sharpest leads.</p> <p>If you think this is cool then check out my other designs.
