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!
