A few more flexible pencils ✏️✏️✏️

For some time my 3D printer was broken 🖨️🔧, now it is back in service 🙌
Continuing the theme of flexible pencils, I made a few additions.
For printing, multi-color 3D printing will be needed, although it is possible to manage without it if you know how to change filament on time on a single-color 3d printer 😉.
Perhaps in your country these pencil companies are well known: Dixon, Koh-I-Noor, Konstructor and Staedtler.
Btw, for printing core.stl it is better to use not perfectly black filament, but dark gray, it looks more natural, in my case the filament is called "wet asphalt".
Assembly is simple, for reliability use glue 💧.
✏️✏️✏️
I also made a flexible pencil clicker.
alu.stl must be glued to pencil.stl.
Here also be guided by the Y mark, which is applied to wood.stl and pencil.stl.
As a mechanical switch, I use an Outemu blue switch (a clone of Cherry MX).
I made two versions, inspired by the Dixon pencil and the magic pencil from SpongeBob, with an anchor.

Also a small refinement of the old design - Flexible Bone, two hole options for each length. Now the hole is less noticeable.
