Tom's Protective Darts Case
pinshape
Tired of constantly assembling and disassembling your darts? Do you need a simple, one-piece protective cover that will keep your darts safe and flights straightened? This solution is what you've been looking for, I hope. Designed from scratch in Fusion 360 with simplicity and 3D printing in mind without any support. It's universal for softip darts with different barrels (diameter up to approximately 9.2mm) and flights (up to approximately 34.8mm). Pick the design variant closest to your dart's length (from tip to flight or flight protector). I have prepared three options: 148mm, 155mm, and 161.5mm. Video: https://youtu.be/pb-j95AZSgk Note: The darts hold in the case itself due to friction from non-rectangular flights. You can shake them out if not using a flight protector. However, I recommend using a shorter elastic band when carrying darts somewhere. See the picture, there are two small hooks on both sides. Print Settings: Designed for common 0.4mm nozzles and 0.2mm layers for quick 3D printing. If you need higher impact strength, use more durable materials (CPE, Nylon, etc.), but don't forget about overall precision – the holes for dart flights are quite tight and some material/print combinations may be over the edge. (My V1 prototypes from PLA are fully functional.) Note: It's obvious, but print it with the inserting holes on the build plate.
