    3D printing of parts

    Anyone here print up 3D versions of Delorean parts, like AC vents, window switches, or any other part that might need replacing at some point?

    Originally, all the clips were the same part, but the bottom clip doesn't sit flush against the bezel, causing it to snap. I modeled 2 different versions: side clips and a bottom clip that does sit flush.

    I 3D printed some vent tube holders to keep the vent tubes open so i could slide the vents in them. But i have not posted the stl. I fought this for years.

    How about things where the price seems a little too high for what you get?

    At $57 USD (or about $100 CAD by the time you add shipping, customs, exchange rate), I think someone could make these blanking caps fairly easily.

    Honestly, I think its time someone tries printing a binnacle. If it were printed in multiple pieces and then bonded together, and then wrapped with vinyl, I'll bet it would come out pretty well.
