Great work, that's a cool looking design!

Besides the crash, did you run into any difficulties during the design process?

Mostly me going fast and not doing things parametrically. Also incompatibility between different object types where I needed to create a Body from a Part to use it in a PartDesign Boolean.

Oh, that's cool! Would love to print one as a gift for my brother, are you planning on making the print files or maybe even the source available?

https://cults3d.com/en/3d-model/game/dart-case-callcc Have a look. As I said, it's not really a well done model.

Thank you, I appreciate it!

I might, but first I would need to clean up the file a bit and make things a bit more parametric. The problem is that darts are all differently sized, it's difficult to make a case that fits all.

I'd also, love to see the freecad file

https://cults3d.com/en/3d-model/game/dart-case-callcc Here you go. As said already, it's not a well done model. I'm interested in making a second iteration though at some point

Ah, gotcha. Then maybe I'll have to design it custom for him. Having something to go off of would nonetheless be appreciated if you find the time!
