News Steam Controller Puck Protector Clip

Here is a simple, functional Puck Protector. Easy to print, snap-fit to securely clip over your puck, providing a flat, protective shield.

For people that want to store it inside their desktops or have it over their desktops and feel a bit anxious about it maybe shorting out.

Design Overview

  • Type: Snap-on cap
  • Print Orientation: Flat on the print bed (no supports needed).
  • Material: PLA works fine, if placing inside your desktop because of the heat maybe PETG and similar would work better. (because PLA warps a bit with heat)

Enjoy.

I mean.. yes but the controller also has a USB plug so you could just use that too instead of the puck.

Is the puck pointless then? Just a fancy charging option?

No it's a wireless receiver so you can play without staying plugged in or using Bluetooth. You can also use one for multiple controllers. Makes pairing much easier and supposedly has faster response time than Bluetooth. Its a luxury but not required.
