I purchased an electric drill/screwdriver on Amazon a while ago. Unfortunately it isn't available anymore.
Although manufactured by a pretty unknown Chinese company, it is just a powerhouse, doing its job flawlessly for years, without any malfunction of uncertainity, with batteries of extremely good quality, providing power on demand and lasting for months without any charging, if not used. And, most important factor: it is still going as it was the very first day. A real bargain!
Sadly, I can't witness the same quality when it comes to its container, a rigid plastic briefcase coming along with the tool itself. Due to a debatable design and materials choice, the original buckles broke up, forcing me to a shameful bi-component glue repair attempt that ultimately led to an even poorer and horrible solution: elastic strings.
I decided to overcome the design flaws coming with the briefcase, working on a new buckle concept based on a more flexible material: TPU.
So I opened my Personal Edition of Autodesk Fusion and, through caliper measurements and 3D printing trials and repeats, I finally ended up with the definitive design, which makes its job and fixes the limitations coming with the original rigid plastic buckles design.
I'm going to share the final STL file for the people that experienced my same journey, as soon as I'll get to understand how such content can be shared on this Grav CMS platform. :)
