Snorkel Holder

I'm excited to share that dusting off our snorkel gear from the back shed was a great reminder for me that we had lost most of the little flexible figure-eight rings that hold the snorkel to the mask last season. Luckily, I quickly designed a replacement using Fusion 360, and we were able to model it off an existing file. If you're interested in reworking or changing the inner diameter, the 360 fusion file is attached for your reference. Next, I printed a new set of snorkel clips, and the kids were back in the water just in time for summer. This time around, we went with a nice bright color that will make them easier to spot when they inevitably pop off into the water. I used Ninjaflex (85A) for the print, which was done through a Bowden setup with a Flex Wheel Extruder.
