About this model

Printed with PLA I recommend scaling the parts to 50% At 30% scaling the padlock still works. The lock can of course be bypassed. It serves to protect little things from mean roommates ;-) Build it: 1. Download "Part_1" and "Part_2" 2. Scale it if needed (recommendet: 50%) 3. Print the Parts, remove excess and refine curves 3. Use super glue to bring the pieces together !alt text !alt text Check out my Things !alt text !alt text
