Tape Measure Box

I looked around for a now Box for my Tape-Measures.
I was not able to find one that i liked, so I decided to make one of my own.
I prepared stl's for 10mm, 11mm, 12mm and 20mm tape measures and a parametric openscad file, where you can easily change the width for another tape measures.
To mount it, you need the two printed parts, a tape measure, a toothpick and an M3x10 screw.
First, pop the Support for the Screw-Hole out and remove the Metal-Clip on one Side of the tape measure.
Insert the tape measure as you see on the Pictures, press the toothpick in the hole to secure the tape measure and shorten the toothpick flush to the surface.
Wind the tape measure up, put the box over it (make sure the end of the tape measure goes thru the slit in the box) and drive the screw in.
You don't need to tap threads in before. Just jam it in and fasten it to your behavior.
Please share it, if you make one.
