3D model description

I decided to create a printer friendly version of the very useful elastic tie! This version is printed "laying down" witch makes the locking tie a lot stronger, and less reliant on good Layer adhesion.

Please see the video for more information:

I also made a version with holes, this one one can use to make organisation even easier.

Changing the scale might be a good idea depending on the rubber band size one wants to use.

I would like to enter this design in the #XYZCHALLENGE , since one of my new years resolution was to clean up a lot of the cable mess that is in my apartment, and keep it that way. #XYZCHALLENGE
