My 13 year-old son is really into sailing and 3D printing. He made me a keychain with my sail colors that I really love! I told him that this might be something that other sailors would want - they could choose their sail colors and even add their sail number if they want. It could be a cool keychain or Christmas Tree ornament!

Is this worth pursuing? Would anyone want one? I really love mine!

It's really big. It's cool, but I'd never want anything that big on my key ring. And... it's just more plastic that'll end up in the landfill (like so many 3D printed things).

Much smaller, and fabric so it doesn't crack... now you're talking.
