Button Extenders for a little extra room!

thingiverse

Pants button extenders provide extra room when needed, a lifesaver for those who need it. These shouldn't require much explanation, but I'll elaborate anyway - my pants needed supports for the button area to print correctly. Files with Wide in their name feature a wide button loop that works perfectly as an alternative to my original files designed for slacks that inspired these prints in the first place. After printing dozens of Wide files without issues, I encountered problems getting a batch to print the first layer clean. My PETG filament was prone to cracking and popping, leading me to conclude it had absorbed moisture. There's more to the story, but what matters is that I created a better print file with uniform thickness on curves, eliminating the need for corner blobs. The new thicker files, marked by "thick" in their name, are based on the universal Wide file measurements and allowed me to achieve a cleaner start with some PETG filament that wasn't cooperating.
