Full Width Console Tray for Subaru Outback 4th Gen

prusaprinters

<p>Console tray for 4th Generation (2010-2017) Subaru Outback. I modeled the original part, but without the blank for the ejector switch (or whatever the higher trim level comes with).</p> <p>Original tray was sized to fit 2009 cell phones and mine was always sliding out on turns. The new one is wider and has an adjustable depth.</p> <p>I printed a deep one for me, uploaded a shallow one here. Contact me if you want something else.</p> <p>Thingiverse appears to be mangling the pics so here's the full album: <a href="https://imgur.com/a/uFnBTBM">https://imgur.com/a/uFnBTBM</a></p> <h3>Print instructions</h3><h3>Category: Automotive Print Settings</h3> <p><strong>Printer Brand:</strong> Prusa</p> <p><strong>Printer:</strong> I3 MK3S</p> <p><strong>Rafts:</strong> No</p> <p><strong>Supports:</strong> Yes</p> <p><strong>Resolution:</strong> .2mm</p> <p><strong>Infill:</strong> 15%</p> <p><strong>Filament:</strong> Inland PETG Silver<br/> <strong>Notes:</strong></p> <p>The bottom of the tray has an 8.5° angle to it. So if you align the bottom to the build plate you can manually rotate it 8.5° in the slicer and the top will be level. This creates more support structure, but I think the layer lines end up looking better (see final image in the upload).</p> <h3> How I Designed This</h3> <p>I took some reference pics of the OEM part with a long lens (200mm) standing from far away to try to minimize distortion. I think imported that image as a background canvas in Fusion 360 so I could trace on top of it. This still wasn't perfect as there is still some distortion but I was able to build the model incrementally (ie first was just a rectangle, then 5 iterations later I added the curve across the top)</p> <p>All in this took about a dozen test parts and 20 hours of CAD / caliper time. My Fusion 360 skills went from a 2 to at least a 4 out of 10.</p>
