4 inch Caliper holster

Update: I ordered another one of these because I find the size of this handy. The one I just got has a proper case. My first one came in a plastic bag. Maybe you won't need this but for my first one, I sure did. I have this little 4" digital caliper.https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B00X6UKXIA/ref=oh_aui_search_detailpage?ie=UTF8&psc=1 It is very handy but the battery compartment likes to come open and hitting the buttons turns it on. In addition, this thing has some pretty sharp edges. I needed a little holster to put it in so I can throw it in my backpack or laptop bag. The fit is tight enough that the caliper stays in place by itself. I made a photo copy of the back of the caliper and modeled it from there using Onshape. Here is the source:https://cad.onshape.com/documents/00f9abf69a74e76dbdd555cb/w/82e7aaad148931e734bc9aa5/e/9638452abc36aa46c91caa7b I split the model in two so that you don't need support. Just glue the two pieces together. Print Settings Printer Brand: LulzBot Printer: Mini Rafts: No Supports: No Resolution: .4 Infill: 20% Notes: I glued the two pieces together using super glue. Tip: water is an accelerant. Apply glue, press the two halves together and hold under running cool water. I picked a bright orange PLA so it is easy to spot.
