If you'd be so kind as to excuse the clickbaity title, I just wanted to make sure that there are no illusions as to where this is coming from.

Item: 3D printed PCI slot cover. One size fits all. If it doesn't fit, make it fit. I suggest a nail clipper for the final touches.
Age: As young as a newborn baby.
Price: 45 bucks for 3
Payment Method Accepted: Cash, EFT. I'd also like to be paid in barrels of mead on occasion.
Warranty: Uh, sure? 7 days. Hopefully you don't kick your PC on a daily basis, as understandable as that might be.
Warranty Holder: Me, myself and I.
Packaging: Bubblewrap and a box.
Condition: NEW/EXCELLENT!
Location: Roodeplaat by day, Cullinan by night.
Reason: Asked for 6, needed 3. (GPU, USB 3.0 expansion card wasn't taken into account.)
Shipping: On you.
Collection: Yebo.

TL/DR: Testing the market for stuff my mom makes.

So this post was basically just to see if I can generate some interest in something that is cheap, relatively easy to make and expertly designed. (ALOT of trial and error went into its production. I was like Goldilocks during the process of refinement; "This one's too short. This one's too thick. This one's not going into the hole... Oh, wait I have it backwards. Haha!" Anyway, the main obstacle I see here is: Who in their right mind would pay to ship these items? I dunno. Maybe there's a market for this sort of thing. If that is the case, it'll certainly provide inspiration (and the motivation to be inspired simultaneously) to delve deeper into this endeavour of making my case look Balls-To-The-Wall-Pretty; and as a consequence post some threads of the products my mom makes here. (After getting a reseller sub, of course.) As I'm writing this, I already saw three alternative designs for these PCI slot covers open on her laptop screen. (Alien head, Thunderbolts, and two dragon heads facing each other.)

But ja, I've said too much already. Hope you like the photos I've taken. I presume they speak for themselves.

Very nice!

Will definitely order some when I finally upgrade my case.
