    This took a bit longer than planned; I had saved this in one of my kitchen sink "playground" projects and had to carve it out into its own file.

    All done, though.
    I've uploaded the Fusion F3D file for this model, .stl and .3mfs for 3d printing, and dimensioned images to https://github.com/ElizabethGreene/M...Elastic%20Clip

    None of the dimensions are critical. If I were going to make more of these, I'd make the inside slot 3mm instead of 2. It's a bit snug getting the hair tie to fit into it at initial assembly.

    THANK YOU, Elizabeth. Wow, every kind of file I would ever need!

    You suggested to increase the slot to 3mm, however the sketch indicates it is already 9mm long x 4mm wide. (center distance of the arcs is 5mm + 2mm radius each side). Has the sketch already been changed or what am I missing? All the best.

    OOps, I must have fixed it in the drawing and don't remember. Magic!
