Print guidance estimate

Slicer data required

Print cost & setup estimate

Setup guidance plus saved or slicer-confirmed filament, cost, and time. Model file size is never treated as printable volume.

3 model files

Recommended kit

Slice required

Slice the required model files; source file size is not printable volume.

Material cost

Slice required

Use the slicer's filament total; STL/3MF byte size is not a cost input.

Print time

Slice required

Slice with the recommended material, infill, orientation, and supports.

STL file	Role	Source size	PETG / ASA 20%	PETG / ASA 15%	100% solid	Recommendation
Soft_Nub.stl	Accessory piece	884 B STL	Slice file	Slice file	Slice file	Small functional file: print slowly; consider 80–100% infill for durability.
Tesla_Charger_Base.stl	Printable file	1.6 MB STL	Slice file	Slice file	Slice file	Print the nub with TPU for flexibility, and the base with a more rigid material like PETG or ASA.
Tesla_Logo.stl	Printable file	44.6 KB STL	Slice file	Slice file	Slice file	Print the nub with TPU for flexibility, and the base with a more rigid material like PETG or ASA.

Saved setup guidance is used for material, infill, support, and per-file recommendation text; editable numbers are planning estimates only.

Description

TooMuchFun's design is by far my favorite of all the ones in Thingiverse. But as you can see from the comments on his original, a lot of people have trouble either getting the charger to fit or getting their plug stuck in the holder. There are lots of recommendations about scaling up the print. I tried that at first but found that the charger becomes too loose and can fall. After reading through some of the comments, I came to realize that the dimensions of the original design are perfect. The issue is the height of the nub at the bottom of the print. At first, I remixed it and reduced the nub height. But I quickly noticed that the bottom of my charger plug was getting marred. So I separated the nub and made it an independent piece. This gives you two options: 1. You can print the nub with TPU (I used a 95 shore hardness TPU - 10% infill, 2 walls) 2. You can experiment with the height of the nub until you find one that works best for your charger/printer/filament. I also separated the logo to make it easier to print in a different color. Tolerances for the nub and logo slots is 0.2mm, so you'll likely need to add a little CA glue to keep things put. Many thanks to TooMuchFun for the great design.
