C2 Corvette Flippy Key Hanger – Functional lights

This is a fully functional, 3D-printable C2 Corvette key hanger inspired by the iconic pop-up headlight mechanism of the original car. Designed at approximately 1:12 scale, the model features a mechanical flip action where hanging keys actuate the headlights—combining display, motion, and everyday utility in one piece. Assembly is required.

Assembly

This model requires assembly after printing.
A step-by-step illustrated assembly guide is included and walks through the entire process clearly, including orientation, part order, and glue points

• Most moving parts are press-fit, but light use of superglue (CA) is recommended for specific joints
• Parts are labeled L / R where orientation matters
• No special tools required (small knife helpful for cleanup)

If you’ve assembled articulated or mechanical prints before, this will be very manageable.
