Custom tube cap with guard

thingiverse

This is a customizer for press-fit caps on tubes that prevent loss with a built-in guard. Don't print the guard if you're not using flexible filament because it's designed to secure the cap to the tube or other objects and keep it from getting lost. Recommended for printing in flexible materials, I'm using this design for lab test tubes, customizing vape atomizer caps, and replacing broken oil bottle caps. It's an affordable option that prints quickly, is easy to use, and can be reused or customized as needed. Enjoy! UPDATE 16.OCT-2017: The script now includes a variable to set the guard length, allowing for complex configurations not initially considered. A new variable has been added to let users specify different inner diameters for the guard compared to the tube, making it possible to attach the guard to objects other than the tube. Some calculations have also been updated.
