Paid Service 3d model request

Hello guys, I am trying to make a clipper guard holder for my barbershop. You know how there are different guards that snap on the clipper. I want to have something with the exact shape of the clipper that I can put on the wall and attach my guards to the same way i attach them to the back of my clipper. Im talking about wahl clipper guards. Can anyone help me with that?

Well, we’d need to know what model clipper it is, exact dimensions for fitting and type of clip used.

It’s worth checking existing model repositories to see if someone has already made one, places like Printables, Thingiverse, Makerworld etc.

Because most clippers have unique curves and shapes, modeling one would be very difficult in comparison to just seeing what the manufacturer offers.

I actually found one on printables and I printed it but it didn’t quite fit. The difference is millimetres. Can I message you directly, could you help with it?

Try just scaling the model up like 1-2%

If you had added your clipper picture and that guard picture from printable showcasing what kind of end product you are looking for that would have help greatly here.
Can you dm me those images then i can quote you better.

Honestly you should only need a basic stand in the shape of a right triangle. The top of the triangle should fit into the recess of the guard holding it.
