Dignified Yoga Mat Carrier - extended bars and captive straps (REMIX)

The original model is a great design idea, so I printed it and it worked well. But then I wanted to use continuous hook&loop tape (this one in the UK - https://www.amazon.co.uk/dp/B01CNWVKUQ ) and I wanted it captive so it wouldn't pull through the slots. That would mean wrapping the loose end round the mats and over the bar before securing it against the main loop, and needed a little tab on the end of the bar to make sure the tape can't slip off the top of the bar. See photos.

So I remixed the main bar for each of the original sizes of strap tape, and these are included here. If you want to use this system but already printed the original bar, then rather than reprint the extended bar you can take the “standalone” extension STL file and print two of them, and glue one on each end. That's what I did actually, but then I remixed the bars so anyone who hasn't printed one yet can print with the extensions already built into the STL.

Follow instructions in the original design and get the handle from there, then when you've printed the appropriate bar here look at the photos for how to wrap the tape - after you've done it once it'll be very quick and simple.

PLEASE NOTE!!!!! I didn't realise until after taking and uploading the pics, I laid out the tapes fluffy-side-up before adding the mats and wrapping them - silly mistake. If you lay the tapes out fluffy-side-down instead, then when you've wrapped the mat(s) you'll be walking with the fluffy side outwards and it won't stick to your clothes if it brushes past them :o)  

PRINTING - The STLs here for the standalone extension, and all the bars, are orientated correctly for printing, although you might want to tweak slightly if the bar ends up not quite centred on your platform or off the edge. 

Shouldn't need any supports or adhesion.

Bars are great at 0.2mm layers, same for the standalone extension. The original handle is better at 0.12m for a smoother finish on the grip, and I used a raft and supports for it because so little of it touches the print bed - these all cleaned off really easily leaving a nice print.

PLA+ worked fine. Speed whatever you like. 

Bars should be printed with at least 5 top and bottom layers and 30% minimum infill as per original designer's notes.
