Flexaret TLR Retro Lens Cap

thingiverse

This is a more "retro" lens cap for the Flexaret TLR camera, styled along the lines of the original. If you would like a simpler cap, you can see my other design here: https://www.thingiverse.com/thing:4546973 Three versions of this retro cap are given. The first two are variants, both with, and without, the "Flexaret" name on the front. These caps have protrusions or bumps on the inside which are intentionally oversized. They can be filed or scraped a bit with a knife to get a custom push fit. This was found to be necessary as there is quite a bit of variation in the diameter of the Flexaret lens housings. It is a little bit of extra work, but these caps can be made to fit very well. The third design was an experimental with spring loaded protrusions or bumps on the inside of the cap. This cap should not need adjustment, it fits on my Flexaret camera. As the spring clearance gaps are small this is a bit challenging to print so you may need to adjust your machine settings to clear these gaps. See print notes below......
