Cassette's Not Dead Yet!

Inspired by everyone's favorite tape-based audio format, the microcassette filament swatch is an ultra-compact, ultra-quick print coming in at under 20 minutes for a sample. Use it as a keychain to show everyone your favorite hobby or add some 3D printed magic to your cassette collection using the included to-scale case that can hold 9 swatches!

But we have to integrate some tests in this print right? Of course! Here's some other features for you to inspect:

  • Swatch measures exactly 50 mm x 30 mm
  • The two large internal holes are exactly 10 mm in diameter
  • Half of the “tape window” is just 0.2mm, allowing you to see first layer flow
  • The raised trapezoid has gaps of 0.2mm, adding subtle texture and a way to check over-extrusion.

The final STL is a 2-minute printable insert that fits right in the recess at the top of the cassette - great for seeing how filament colors work with each other and for labeling.
