A surprise for my neighbor.
Hey guys, wanted to share a quick story from the garage that reminded me why I love what I do.
My neighbor drives an older Honda HR-V, and the other day I noticed he was missing the headlight washer cover on one side. We got to talking, and he told me he’s been searching everywhere for that part but just couldn't find a replacement. It turns out the car belonged to his recently passed father. Even though my neighbor could easily buy a brand-new car, he keeps this Honda because it’s a beautiful reminder of someone he truly misses.
Well... you know me. I couldn’t just leave it at that.
I grabbed my trusty Creality Raptor Pro scanner and headed out to the garage in the evening. I scanned the left cover (thankfully that one was still there), did some quick modeling, mirrored the file, and fired up the printer. Perfect fit!
I tied the finished part to his door handle with a red ribbon last night. Checked this morning, and the gift was happily picked up by him! It’s the little things, right?
