Here’s the finished, 3D printed product!
This thing is seriously sturdy.
I had previously printed a similar version from makerworld but it wasn’t strong enough to hold my glasses, and if you drive over a speed bump - the sun glasses were dropped to the floor!
You can see how I modeled the cutout for the nose section here:
This was by far the hardest part. I attempted to “pad” the area out multiple times but was hit with the dreaded “wire not closed” error.
In the end I drew an inverse shape and used “pocket” to remove material.
A little late for #FreeCADFriday but here’s what I designed and printed this week:
A magnetic holder, to keep my sunglasses safe in the car.
My car has a (disguised) metal plate hidden beside the steering wheel - so you can add your own magnetic flair.
This nearly broke me, and definitely broke FreeCAD multiple times, but I have made a working iris, animated in the assembly workbench. #FreeCADfriday #3dprinting #FreeCAD
I nearly lost my mind when they said I can reference external geometry without first bringing it into the sketch.

A late Friday entry! I’ve designed a parameterized case for the BC-250 mining/gaming rig that’s mostly done.
