Bar Hairclip - Stars and Plain

Bar Hairclip - Stars and Plain

Description

After 16 iterations, and inspired by a Bruce Sterling story (Kiosk), I've designed and printed a working hair clip. Length: 8.4cm Height: 2.2cm Depth: 1.2cm Weight: 7g Printed in ABS, and utterly dependent on its mechanical properties, it features a working ABS hinge, three kinds of springs, and a snap fastener. This version is plain - the Sketchup file is included for those who want to go on and adorn their hair clips. Failing that, you can use the gently curved outer surface as a base for gluing on your own additions. <big>Versions:</big> hairclip-mk15 = This version has four embossed stars on the outer bar (as seen in blue in the photograph). hairclip-mk16-final = The flat backed version, easier to modify on your own.
