To create the key hanger described in the tutorial, the following tools, software, and materials are required:
Tools
- CNC CNC Router (for precision cutting)
- Single-edged 4 mm diameter mill (suitable for first-time users)
- Composite aluminum bending mill (3 mm max depth)
- Heat gun (for folding HDPE components)
- Non-stick tool (e.g., wooden rod for pressing heated plastic)
Software
- CAD software (AutoCAD or similar for .dxf file preparation)
Hardware/Materials
- 5 mm thick HDPE sheet (primary material)
- Wall screws and anchors (material-specific fixings)
- Threaded insert (for horizontal piece assembly)
- Wooden mold (custom-made for cooling after bending)
- Carabiner (optional, for hanging items like keys)
The tools and materials focus on shaping the HDPE sheet and mounting the final product securely. Hardware selections depend on wall type (e.g., concrete vs. drywall). No specialized software beyond CAD is mentioned, though CNC CNC Router control software may be required[1][2].
