    It’s a good idea but I’m sceptical about anything friction to hold the darts. The problem is that they have very sharp machined rings that make them very non-slippery to the fingers. I’m pretty sure those rings would file off anything they slide against very quickly.

    The steel tip does not have this problem though, so adding some part that pushes against the tip might be the solution. Alternatively, i could also make the part that houses the flights be somehow spring loaded and squeeze them.

    They fall out. For now I use a rubber band around the case but I don’t like that solution too much. The initial idea was to put a rubber band around the “waist” so that they would be held there. Unfortunately the rubber then doesn’t touch the dart. My current idea for a fix is to make a clip that pushes against that darts sideways through the holes.
