Print Settings

Printer Brand:

Monoprice

Printer:

Select Mini

Rafts:

No

Supports:

Yes

Resolution:

0.13125mm

Infill:

25

Filament: Monoprice PLA Plus Grey


Notes:

A. Highest Quality: Print one at a time with the tab facing up with lots of supports.
B. Less Cleanup: Print one at a time with the flat side facing down with minimal supports.

I recommend printing with style A for the best rotational feel and nice "snap" when they're closed or extended. You'll have to clean up all the supports between each gap but it will be worth the effort.

Post-Printing

How I Designed This

Did it completely with polygonal modeling. Started by roughing in the dimensions with very simple shapes and then mostly used Boolean, Bevel and Extrude to get to the end result.
