Description
3D model description Achieve a clean, professional finish on your projects with the Tucans Screw Stub. This custom-designed screw cap provides a flush, elegant look while ensuring a secure and reliable fit. The design features a rounded, chamfered cap for smooth transitions to the surface. The internal structure includes a 2.3mm circular shaft with four support legs, engineered to snap firmly into the screw head for a rattle-free hold. Technical Specifications: Total Diameter: 11.5 mm Total Height: 3.30 mm Cap Thickness: 1.0 mm Internal Shaft (Fixing point): 2.30 mm (Diameter) x 2.30 mm (Height) with 4 support legs. 3D printing settings Printing Recommendations: Because this is a small functional part, cooling is critical for a high-quality finish. Please follow these guidelines: Material: PET-G is highly recommended for its durability and flexibility, though other materials will work well. Batch Printing (Crucial): Because the model is small, do not print just one. Print multiple caps simultaneously to allow sufficient cooling time for each layer before the next pass. Bed Surface: * Use a Smooth Plate if you want a glossy, glass-like finish on the cap. Use a Textured Plate if you prefer a modern, matte look. Brim Settings: * Print with a Brim (Outer only). Set the Brim Gap to 0.8 mm to ensure it holds the part during printing but snaps off cleanly afterward without damaging the model. Suggested Slicer Settings: Speed: Keep it slow to ensure detail and finish. Top Surface: 25 mm/s Outer Walls: 25 mm/s Infill: 25–30% Gyroid (for optimal structural integrity). Shells/Top Layers: 5 Top Layers (Recommended for a solid, gap-free top surface).
