Update: New Object
So, I actually chose a new object for the project. It's the pill bottle for my estrogen medication.
The bottle seems simple but actually has 3 components - the cap, the bottle itself, and inside the cap, there's a little tab that clicks into place that functions as the child-safe lock that prevents children from unscrewing it easily. Additionally, there are various stickers on the bottle body that I think would make for a good challenge to reproduce.
I would choose this over my jeweller's saw because of it's personal importance to me - as a transgendered woman this one bottle is easily the most important object I own, and I would not give it up for anything. Furthermore, despite the simple geometries of the objects, there are actually many intricacies in the design - teeth and grooves and other moving parts - that I would like to investigate.
The following are some pictures of the broken down components as well as some close-up shots.
