Description

Turn a hockey puck into a tesla jack pad with this stud. This is a remix of a very nice design: https://www.thingiverse.com/thing:3109796 I tried that design, and it works pretty well. Its designed for a rigid filament though, like PLA or PETG. Those are a little too brittle for my tastes, and I wanted something that had less chance of breaking when I insert it into the car. I think Nylon would be a good choice for that original design, but I didn't have any on hand. I did have some TPU though... The original finger design with TPU was too flexible. The jack pad didn't stay in the hole on its own. So I re-designed it to be a closed circle design. There is enough flex in the TPU to not need the cut outs at all. Just print 4 of the pegs and one drill guide (the drill guide just locates the hole in the center for you). Use the drill guide to drill out a hole in 4 hockey pucks. Then screw the pegs onto the hockey pucks. Now throw them in your car. You never know when you'll need to jack the car up. You need 4 incase you take it to a shop and they want to put it on a lift.
