Sample filament swatch with paracord loop connector

A simple filament sample swatch that is easy to browse and keep organized.

The loop is easy to open and close, and when your sample swatch collection grows too big for your loop you can easily use a longer paracord.

Setting up and using the paracord connector is simple.

• Slide one end of your paracord through the connector end without the slot, tie a knot, pull it tight, and cut off the excess.
• Tie a knot on the other end of your paracord at the length you'd like your loop to be. Pull it tight and cut off the excess.
• Insert the knot into the slot on the connector and slide the cord tight to make your loop.

The connector is not load bearing in any way.

June 1, 2020 Update: I added files with the filament type engraved on the side of the connector. This could be handy if you have multiple loops organized by different types of filament.

Print instructions

I print the paracord connector without any brim, infill, or supports on my Prusa Mini without any issues.
