About this model

These models are intended for decorative purposes ONLY and are not to be used as towing devices  While trying to figure out a funny hitch cover for my vehicle, I came up with this! It is a 2" receiver hitch cover that resembles a classic wind-up toy key! There are three versions of the hitch covers. One that is fancy, one that resembles more of a wind-up key and then another that has larger holes and, in my opinion, looks more like a key! I suggest printing with 4 wall loops, 15% infill (rectangular) and with either ASA or PETG filament. I used PETG only because I could not source any gold/brass ASA filament. Thanks for looking and let me know if you have any questions!
