Fun little project! Little tip, you can make the entire 2d shape in 1 sketch and extrude that, saves time and makes the constraints better editable in the future. Also why did you make the hook not fit your bike specifically? You might aswell make the clips fit your bike rack exactly (usually its a fairly common size anyways) You could also make a version where instead of just a clip, theres velcro or a tiewrap running through it. Just my 2 cents. I giggled when you said your options were PLA and PLA with woodfill, just seemed so silly to use that on a project like this, like it was an actual option to begin with :P When you're buying new filament next time try PCTG, its like PETG but stronger and even easier to print. If you refine the parts a bit and test them over a longer period of time, maybe you can post them to a site like Printables for others to enjoy. Thanks for the video and happy printing!! :)
As you model more parts you’ll get a lot faster and see different approaches 6 hours now could turn in to an hour for parts like that later on. Definitely worth the journey.
66 cents + whatever the value of you time per hour is worth + energy consumption of you computer & 3D printer. id just spend the $10 and make sure my bag is properly secured.
“ok, here’s the deal”

I use this bag on multiple different bikes so it didn't make any sense to go specific I'll definitely look into pctg

tpu would be a good option

you spend 10 dollars and don't learn anything, I spend 66 cents and learn how to 3d model more competently 🤷
@@NathanielWNB I guess if dont have much experience in 3D modeling then it might be worth it lol
"You" have these bags, or your father? 😂
mine now after I fixed it
