Knob for Spacemouse

thingiverse

After some years of use the knob of my beloved spacemouse became very sticky. Blame the silicon cover for it, the only downside of this great tool. I'd like to recommend using cling film to cover the sticky silicon surface, it's thin, very adhesive to this matter and also probably available in your household. I disassembled the spacemouse completley and non-destructive, so that I could take measurements of the knob for my attempt to resemble it in Fusion 360 (using the same spacemouse after reassembly, yes, it still works). I'm sharing an early model of my work, because I feel like it might be useful to a lot of fellow spacemouse owners - I myself didn't print it yet, because my 3d printer is under extended mainenance. If you print it and it fits the spacemouse, please let me and others know! I'll update this as soon as my printer is back online.
