Description
Does the world need another earbud holder?
Well, this one fits Apple earbuds and stores the cable neatly.

Instructions
Print, put the buds in the pockets, wrap the cable, clip the jack, admire.
50% fill and zero extra shells works fine.
Update: I've posted an improved design (easier to wrap & unwrap, stores cable more compactly, fits all earbuds) at thingiverse.com/thing:21858.

This is actually the best earbud holder that Ive seen on thingiverse, I like the compact/simplistic design.
Does anyone else think it looks like Squid-ward?

Fantastic design - my picture shows three of these things - one with standard Apple Earbuds, one with the Apple Earbuds which came with my iPhone carrying the buttons which some people seem to have had problems with (I haven't!) and the third ... just looking like Squidward. One point - the left hand side earbud hole for some reason comes out too small on my machine (RepRap Pro Huxley) - maybe oval. Is there any chance of increasing the hole diameter a touch - maybe 0.2mm or so, just to eliminate this sort of problem which is probably due to machine variations and tolerances?
It took a while, but I've uploaded a file "loose earbud holder.stl" with holes that are .4mm larger. A bit loose is better than too tight.
