My 4th edition to Thingiverse! A Saami inspired nålhus (needle case; literally "nail house").

This functional print was designed to emulate another one of the Saami peoples vital tools.
Most modern people forget just how important not having holes in your clothing is; especially when you are in -40 degrees! Its for this reason that the Saami felt it necessary to carry a set of needles and thread on them. Traditionally made with reindeer antler or wood, and leather, they provide a strong, secure case for carrying several needles.
PRINTING NOTES:
Most of the art was just done with a sharpie. feel free to decorate yours as you see fit!
You will need supports. Rafts depend on your printers capabilities.
Its designed to be made using 550 paracord as the string. Assembly is required.
A piece of soft leather (like deer leather), or potentially of frictionate cloth is required to finish this print. Im debating making a printable sheet with f
