I know that the typical load that broke the old buckle - a laptop, notebook, and other travel accessories - has not given any challenges to the fix. The stainless steel wire is very strong, as experienced from the force required to form the bends, and I suspect the new plastic buckle would fail before the wire did.I did make a point to size the straight length of the wire to position the loops as close to the ends of the buckle as possible, to minimize the potential moment arm on the cross piece.Thanks,

Excellent Instructable! Better than a lot of adult write-ups! I look forward to seeing what you create next!

Awesome write-up! Looking forward to battle results. And thinking about how we can get this going in Omaha and/or Kansas City...

I like this a lot. I, too, appreciate the simple approach. One thing you might consider in the future is to use a drill bit to get rid of most of the material in the notch, then use the saw to clean up the notch.

Nice! I have some older pieces of leather in my supply box that I think would be well suited for a project like this.

Excellent work! I especially appreciate that you did the step-by-step process with "found" materials, but also included a 3D-printed version. Well done.

Nicely done!

Excellent Instructable! I really like the idea of the drill guide. I'm a maker of marble runs, too, and have made a magnetic run using a drywall J-trim that I found at my local big box hardware store. However, now that I have a 3D printer, I need to give yours a try!

The pegboard is standard 1/4" holes on 1" centers. I think the piece here started life as a 24" x 48" piece from the big box store, but I cut a piece off the end for another project, so the finished size is 24" x around 36".The feet (actually 10" long peg hooks inserted upside down on both the front and back) keep it from falling, although there is a little "springyness" to the whole assembly. It can bounce a little, but it won't fall over.

Excellent! Very well done. You've inspired me to try this myself.

A couple of photos. Thanks again for an inspiring project!
View Instructable »Thanks for presenting this. I made my version over the weekend, using a piece of pegboard as the back and some 2-prong 4" pegboard hooks to hold the cups. I then added a small pump with a switch to pump the water from the bottom cup back up to the top cup. I think this will eventually become part of a booth display for the Omaha Maker Group, probably with an Arduino and some sort of water-level meter in the bottom cup to control the pump. Thanks for the inspiration!
This is a great idea! Makes me think there are a lot of other opportunities to embed original objects within 3D-printed accessories. Well done!
