My first attempt at a commercial 3D print: an asthma inhaler body that can flip into a slimmer form so it doesnt jut out and dug into legs or tear pants. What do you guys think?

Edit: Hi all, it seems like the general consensus is that this is a dangerous product. I really believed that I was making something helpful but that may not be the case. I have decided to take down the listing from Cults3D. Thank you for your feedback.

Smart move, for real. It sucks because I can see that this is something you made to solve a personal gripe, but you do not want the liability that selling this comes with.

Apply for a patent and sell the rights to manufacturers who can make something safe to use. That is a really slick demo video.
