Introduction: 3D Practical Earphone Bracelet
I know there are many new earbuds around the world, but I am a forgetful person, and I lost more than 3 pairs of earbuds, leaving me with lonely(useless) buds of each type. And I still love my old wired earphones. But I hate to store them in my pockets and get tangled wires. So I designed a bracelet that can hold my wired earphones, that it is easy to put and take out.
Supplies
- The spring of an old hair clip.
- 3D printer.
- M2x25 screw.
- Screwdriver.
Step 1: 3D Printing
The design of the bracelet is pretty simple and includes the supports, so no supports needed. (Files in this step)
The height for a good quality and strength should it be 0.2mm for a 0.4mm nozzle.
And that's it! the two parts for PLA will take around 2 and a half hours.
Step 2: Assembly
Place the M2x25 screw in the hole of the bracelet and insert the spring of the old hair clip in the middle. Use a screwdriver to insert the M2 screw.
Note: If your spring wires are too long for the bracelet use cutting pliers to remove the excess and a small amount sanding paper or a file to avoid the sharpness after cutting the excess.
Step 3: Use It and Forget About Tangled Wires.
To store your earphones:
- First place the earphone in the hook to hold them and start placing the cable around the bracelet.
- Loop around the cable on each knob.
- and Place the plug in the hook.
Step 4: Remove the Earphones
To remove the earphones:
- Open the bracelet to loose the cable.
- Remove the loops from one knob.
- Remove the remaining loops of the other knob and remove the earphones from the hook.
- Enjoy your untangled earphones.
