I spent almost an entire day designing the container and printed 4 prototypes before I got the measurements perfect.<\/p>\n<p>This morning, I finally got the two pieces printed, a simple top cover along with a bottom container. It was pure joy when all the pieces fitted\u00a0<strong>perfectly<\/strong> together. Please witness the pieces here, along with a video showing how everything just works!<\/p>\n<p>I have to say, super proud of myself on this one.<\/p>\n<div style=\"width: 640px;\" class=\"wp-video\"><video class=\"wp-video-shortcode\" id=\"video-603-1\" width=\"640\" height=\"360\" poster=\"https:\/\/blog.lufamily.ca\/kang\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/3\/2018\/11\/IMG_1257.jpg\" preload=\"metadata\" controls=\"controls\"><source type=\"video\/quicktime\" src=\"https:\/\/blog.lufamily.ca\/kang\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/3\/2018\/11\/IMG_1197.mov?_=1\" \/><source type=\"video\/quicktime\" src=\"https:\/\/blog.lufamily.ca\/kang\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/3\/2018\/11\/IMG_1197.mov?_=1\" \/><a href=\"https:\/\/blog.lufamily.ca\/kang\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/3\/2018\/11\/IMG_1197.mov\">https:\/\/blog.lufamily.ca\/kang\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/3\/2018\/11\/IMG_1197.mov<\/a><\/video><\/div>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Last year when I purchased the iPhone X, I was curious whether Qi Wireless Transmitters were available.
