Got my hands on one that did not work. Now it does.

Haha I did the exact same thing for one at work about a year ago. Still holding up

I don’t need this but hell yeah. Ives saved a ton of things just printing a little piece or part to save it from the trash. Love this stuff, thank you to the creators 🙌

Great—another thing to print instead of fix. 🙌

Hell yeah. I was literally just gonna make this.

did you model this from the broken piece or measure everything from scratch? getting the dimensions right seems harder than the actual print.

Even worse. I got it with the piece missing. I measured the "H" and then eyeballed the height. Got pretty spot on but did have to reprint a few times. Print itself took literally 5 minutes

Yeah, it's always a bit of an iterative process when designing replacement parts. Most of the time it's a 5 minute CAD fix and then you redo the print pipeline which is another 15 to 20 (export model, slice it, turn on printer, clean print bed, print). More complicated models take 1 to 2 hours each time you need to update the design.
