Description
Summary
I create this box to hold in a safe place two pentel fixpencils.
My students use very bad container for the pencils and pens, this easy bent the tip of the fixpencil, and they become unusable.
With this printed container, which hold two pieces of them (0.3 and 0.5mm) and they are now protected again chocs. Hopefully, they wont need to buy new one's!

How I Designed This
I use sketchup to desin the case around the pencil, which I found online.
I have to rebuild a few time (5x) to reach the final result.
- The cas was too big at first, resize was done.
- Weakness along the long side, added extra support.
- The fixpencil were not tight enough.
- No enough space to take pencil out of the box for big finger
- Reduce the internal border of the top (-0.6mm), to have a better fit.
- Try diffrent setting to get a good print and easy remove of support with the letters.
