Belt Loop :)

Role:
Design and 3D Printing
Timeline:
1 week
Tools:
Fusion360, Ender 3D Printer
Context:
I hate wearing belts! They're bulky, heavy and require too much dexterity for my taste. My solution: the belt loop.
Process:
Shoelaces couldn't solve half of my problems with belts (fussy belt installation and belt loosening), so I decided to solve my own problem. To suit my needs I knew the solution had be constrained to a small device that didn't interfere with the front button and zipper (which would make taking pants off more inconvenient).
here are the 4 prototypes I iterated on:
Final Solution:
After fiddling with size and bezier curves I landed on the final version. I printed a bunch gave them out to all of my friends that asked for belt loops back when they saw me wearing the initial prototype


The End!
