11. nov 2023 - Added versions of all styles for M3 screws after suggestions in the comments :-)
21. oct 2023 - Added versions with hole for keyring attachment - as suggested in the makes/comments :-) Thanks for the feedback everyone!
If you love the outdoors, folding pocket knifes and things like that, you might consider printing this awesome key-holder - the Keyper! After a quick print an assembly, your everyday keys are now foldable and stylized for the outdoors! Enjoy!
Note: this a new design for a printables design contest - so if you got feedback and suggestions for improvements - please let me know in the comments!
There are 4 versions of the Keyper (for now…)
Every style comes with symmetric design as on the pictures or in an updated version with a hole for a keyring.
All styles are now also available for both M3 or M4 bolts, depending on your available hardware and the size of the holes in your keys.
All sizes keep 2 keys pr. ‘layer’ (one in each end) - meaning 2, 4, 6 or… x keys total.
(Need another size to fit keys in your region, please let me know!)
You need the following for this assembly:
(If your hardware doesnt fit the above specifications for the print - please let me know, and I’ll try to upload an adjusted model)
Of printet items, you need:
(This means that for 2 keys = 4 spacers. For 4 keys = 6 spacers and so on..)
Note: if you have an uneven number of keys, you can scale 1 Spacer (in the Z-direction only) to the same thickness as a key (around 3 mm) - and insert it instead of a key. This would make both sides around the same thickness.
These tips can maybe help
Happy printing!
Please share your makes with the keys hidden inside the case, to avoid the possibility of someone making a copy. Or use a photo-editing-software to blur the key. Or make a random key with generative-AI-fill (like in my images - it's not perfect but looks somewhat like a real key)
You can see all my designs on Printables - and you can become an active supporter. I would really appreciate it!
