A 3D print version of Jer Schmidt's Mitutoyo ruler sheath. All testing and design considerations should be attributed to him, as the only thing I did was take his design and convert it to CAD for rapid prototyping.

Two versions:

  • W/ clip = an integrated, 3D printed pocket clip, is printed with the sheath
  • W/O clip = no pocket clip is printed, and a metal clip is required from a retractable badge clip

I have found that, over time, the integrated pocket clip would loosen when printed with PLA (haven't tried other materials), so I decided to use a more stable spring-steel alternative (in the w/o clip version). I am providing both versions for you to choose which one you prefer.

PRINTING:

Print on side, and you should only need supports if you're printing the version with the integrated clip.
