Jewellery - Development

Our first chance to use a 3D Printer!  I have modeled a way to clip the playing card elements of my bracelet together.  I wanted the cards to still have some semblance of volume, so the clips curve as well.  Each section will be attached to the next by a pin.
The actual printing was not that successful.  One of the surfaces did not print, so the design does not hold together properly.  The bracelet elements would be to fiddly for the wearer to put together, and only one size can be made.  More development is needed.
