Pop It Dice Keychain

Important Note - Please Read: There are 2 distinct bubble files. You will need to print 2 of the same file for this design. The thinner one is best for higher stiffness TPU, and the thicker one is best for lower stiffness TPU. If you don't know the difference, print the thinner bubble file for best results This is a pop-it, shaped like a 4-roll on a dice. It is inspired by the animal pop-its that exist, and was a reverse engineering challenge for myself. The bubbles that you can press to click with your fingers, are made out of red/black Yousu TPU. The white casing is PLA printed from Overture. The fun surface design was created by printing with a textured PEI build plate. You will need some form of pliers to aid with the press-fit. I designed it so that it could be thrown around without popping back open. Method for increasing product durability - under adult supervision for under 18! pre-heat convection oven to 350F or 177C, put bubble plates only on a flat metal tray (for 45 seconds - 1 minute in oven for thin type, or 1 min - 1 min and 30 seconds for regular type), immediately remove with oven mitts (heat protection), and cool-off to room temperature (1 min and 45 seconds) in the refrigerator, immediately. This method will increase softness and possibly also the durability of the design
