Dualshock 4 Thumbstick Cover

thingiverse

The rubber on my controller's thumbsticks started falling apart within a year or two of light use, and it was time for a replacement that closely matched the original size and shape. I'm convinced that the rubber composite changed at some point, which resolved this problem. This replacement is designed to fit snugly over a thumbstick without leaving any excess rubber around the outside, so don't expect it to work on intact thumbsticks. The rubber on top of the stick adheres well but shouldn't interfere with the covers' fit. For best results, print at a low layer height. I used a brim and got away with it, but you might not need one. Supports are probably necessary for the inside; I printed mine with a support roof, but your printer's capabilities may vary in keeping the overhang from sticking to the roof. Sanding is highly recommended.
