About this model
This is a very small, very strong keyring for use with 3d printed keychains, keys, or fobs. It is shockingly strong for it's size because it uses geometry to it's advantage. Most 3d printed keyrings published online are circular, which does not work well when scaled to smaller sizes as they fatigue and slowly open up allowing whatever is attached to eventually slip out. The diamond split ring shape of this design features an acute angle at either end, keeping other rings or items seated which tends to keep the split ring centered in it's position as opposed to continually opening it. Opposing forces both open and close the split ring at the same time and failure only occurs when the pulling force is substantial enough to completely deform the PLA as opposed to slight fatigue stresses.
