It was really frustrating.

I agree. Would love a stamp of this.

This is fantastic. Now I’m just looking at where to buy a spring that will fit.

Yep, looks the same on the Amazon store. I usually get crafty stuff from AliExpress, but recently my orders are getting cancelled by my bank :/ so then I end up getting it on Amazon.

Each flat part of the clip is about 1.5mm thick.

I’d love for the cat to live on as a 3d model to use for things even if a binder clip isn’t the end result. But the machine in brass idea very intriguing. I’ve got a few handy people at work I can ask if they know anybody nearby who does this. Can you CNC brass? Is that the same as ‘machining it’.

Yeah, I don’t have the money to do a custom request like that. But I do have the time to fiddle around with my own pet projects, and a little amount of money to get crafty with.

So I found the link on Amazon and one of the listings says it is brass coated zinc alloy. The cat detail looks like enamel.

I have a pen loop on this same notebook that is advertised as brass, and it’s not wearing like this is. I don’t think this is actually brass. It looks like it was maybe painted? Not sure, and I’m also not an expert.

Found one shop selling it on Amazon that says it’s “Brass Plated Zinc Alloy”, but other stores selling it just say it’s “metal”.,

😂 that’s a pretty good argument

That sounds like a super cool project! Do you have pictures?

Thanks for the tip on humidity. That’s definitely a problem in my area.

Ive got an expert spray painter I can call on to help me with this.

Do you think I could repaint some of the brass color that has come off already?

I’m willing to put in some work if it will last. Do you have more details on how to do this?

Also, do you think I could repaint some of the brass color that has come off so far before I do this?

Haha, thanks for the care you took in outlining steps on your other post. I’ve definitely ruined stuff with the nail polish before. It’s just not very strong, and even if it is ok to begin with, it doesn’t last.

I promise I won’t do this 😂

Agreed. It’s terrible.

So, I have been here before. If you download the shop app, it requires access to your emails so that it can scan and report tracking info you have been emailed. It is not showing you anything you don’t have in email already. I’ve used shop, and if there is trackig, you will get it in your email. If you don’t have tracking, you don’t get it in your email, and I don’t believe it shows any additional info in shop either.
