Lollipop case w/ belt hook

thingiverse

This is a ridiculous idea someone proposed on Reddit after finding something similar made all in leather. Decided to model it up. Gone through a few revisions, but this one is pretty solid. The hinge folded right off the print bed, the clasp works with no cleaning besides supports and the clip rotates into position nicely. This is designed for fairly large "old fashion gourmet lollipops" as shown. Got the hinge from the remix source. Got the belt loop somewhere else too, but cannot find the model I used. I've modified the belt loop a bunch from the original model to suit it's use here. Modeled in Tinkercad. Dont print too fast and Horizontal Expansion to 0 to ensure the print-in-place hinges come out fine. UPDATE(09/07/2000) The swivel for the belt hook broke on me. Too narrow. Made it much thicker and thickened the belt loop around it to make it stronger. Use a higher infill to ensure strength there and perhaps 3 layer walls. Also make sure your supports are supporting the gap between the swivel and the belt loop. I had to make some adjustments to default slicer settings to ensure belt loop was supported there.
