    Playing around with straps.

    So far I'm pretty happy with the shapes and fits. Buuut...

    I kinda screwed up:

    This printer isn't intended for high accuracy, but even so it's showing that I didn't use a dense enough mesh of polygons. You can see 'facets'. And if you can see them on the low res, they will be very apparent on high res/finished product.

    Not a big deal to redo as these shapes are still useable for reference, and they served their purpose of identifying areas that need improvement.
