I really like the design of the original “AirTag with Paracord Loop”, but the holes for the paracord are just to small for mine.
So I almost rebuilt the original design and increased the diameter for the paracord to 4mm.

If you like my design, you know what to do!
Make sure to pause the print at around 5mm for inserting the paracord. After you dropped in some drops of CA glue in the middle and back of the paracord shaft, firmly press in the paracord. Now you can resume the print as normal.
Beware when applying the glue. If you add to much glue it can drip on your print bed. If you are unsure just put some paper or tape on the bed in front of the model.
Additionally, give the glue 1 or 2 minutes to dry a little bit out. This makes sure the paracord doesn‘t get pulled out by the hotend. If your glue takes longer to dry you probably didn't use Superglue (Cyanacrylat glue, german: Sekundenkleber) or used too much glue.
Tolerances
At 100% model scale it should be a snug fit. If the tolerances are to tight, just scale the model to 101%.
