Satechi USB-C Hub Cable Wrangler

I wanted a dingus to hold a couple cables to my Satechi Slim Aluminum Type-C Multi-Port Adapter with Type-C Charging Port.

It has a lanyard loop (the way all things in the universe need a lanyard loop), and the oval holes are designed to take a USB-C end. I use that to hold my micro-SD card reader.

How I Designed This

Calipers to get gross dimensions, then guess and check.

I used my digital calipers to get the key dimensions, and then eyeballed the location of the thickest part relative to the large face. I then used the three-point arc tool to inscribe an arc through the construction lines I created based on those measurements.

USB-C plug dimensions were bang-on in thickness (read from my calipers) but I added almost a millimeter to the width - I assume this is an artifact of my printer. Which I got three days ago and don't really know how to optimize. : )
