Willy510 Posted September 14, 2020 Share Posted September 14, 2020 (edited) The stock pads are actually very nice but they are a bit small for my legs with pads on so I drew up some wider deeper ones that don't cover the top screw holes.

..... Posted September 19, 2020 Share Posted September 19, 2020 (edited) oh that is nice. Did you use TPU? I freking LOVE tpu. Thanks for the link, I'll go check it out! I am going to try the stock pads, but I havent yet, as it'll cover the screws and I have some otw. Any suggest how to make that screw hole? I was thinking a very hot punch and melt. I dont have any scarificial pads here of same structure, to test on. How do your pads feel? I envision quite a few 3d printed farkles soon.

They feel pretty nice and they are just about as squishy as the stock pads, printed in TPU with a 10% fill. I'd use a gasket punch to make the holes and no heat Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
..... Posted September 22, 2020 Share Posted September 22, 2020 Printer is actually printing one RIGHT NOW, in black tpu 10% honeycomb with supports. I figured... wth, I've nothing muchn to lose. I also found the stock pads a bit narrow. I have some VEYR high quality foam for this very thing, but printing is a lazy way to make perfect. Hell, tear em up, print again. Wouldnt you know it, I JUST put the stock pads on. Melting with a punch worked well. Now i just gotta try and pull the stock w/o ruining them and find some decent 3m tape. Thanks for sharing the stl. With it alone, I could modify as needed for personal fit. I'll let know how goes. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I use this stuff to mount a lot of stuff, easier to find and cheaper than the big rolls of 3M that I usually use. Works great for side pads. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
