Pocket darts case, double thickness

Gives your darts a hard shell so the tips stop poking through your bag. It's a slim two-part box with a lid in a contrasting colour, a little notch on the edge to pry it open, and a ringed spot on top. Change the dart length and barrel width to fit your set.

Notes
The 45° edge on the lid's bed face and the thin target rings bridge fine without supports.

Hardware

  • 8 × 6 × 3 mm neodymium disc magnet · 4 in the tray, 4 in the lid; check polarity before gluing
  • Super glue (CA) · A drop per magnet

Assembly

  1. Glue the 4 magnets into the tray's top pockets, flush.
  2. Stack the other 4 magnets on top of the tray magnets so they snap on with the right polarity, put a dot of glue on each, then press the lid down to pick them up into its pillars. Let the glue set before you open it.
  3. Take the flights off your darts, lay the darts in the cradles, and put the spare flights in the end pocket.

Good to know

  • I've sized it for darts that are about 120 mm long with the flights off and up to 8 mm thick. If yours are different, change the Dart length and Barrel max diameter sliders on Adjust before printing.
  • Your darts have to go in with the flights off. If the magnets end up loose or too tight in their holes, adjust the Magnet hole clearance slider.
