Design Update

Following a productive round of feedback from Joe & Co., Team Circle of Fifths has reworked its design and developed some initial molds for injection molding of each of the components. The body component was updated to incorporate room for the response mechanism, as well as fit a bearing between the body components. We selected corresponding materials through McMaster Carr, which can be found here (bearing) (O-ring response). The manufacturing technique for the snap components was further developed so that the black part snaps onto the body, and then the white part snaps on top of that black component with the keys and center feature aligning between the two. Check out the molds and updated assembly below:
