<p>This is a remix of Emotiva's <a href="https://www.thingiverse.com/thing:2609627">"Shift Knob with Mazda Batman Logo M10x1.25"</a>.</p> <p>I really liked his design but the automatic shift knob on my 2006 (NC) Miata uses a M8x1.25 thread pattern instead of a M10x1.25 like the manual NB Miata he deigned it for.</p> <p>All the files are the same as his except I added an adapter to make an M8 nut fit into the M10 sized slot his design has. I also added a piece that press-fits into the base to give it some extra length so it does't look funny on an automatic.</p> <p>Be sure to pause the print of the "MazdaKnobMain" file part way through so you can insert the M3 nuts. I just used the "change color" option on my Original Prusa i3 MK2S.</p> <p>Also, you should also probably flip the "MazdaKnobBase" file 180 degrees so you don't need as many supports.</p> <h3> Print Settings</h3> <p><strong>Printer:</strong></p> <p>Original Prusa i3 MK2S</p> <p><p class="detail-setting rafts"><strong>Rafts: </strong> <div><p>No</p></div><strong>Supports:</strong></p> <p>Yes</p> <p><p class="detail-setting resolution"><strong>Resolution: </strong> <div><p>0.1 for the main part and 0.15 for everything else.</p></div><strong>Infill:</strong></p> <p>30%</p> <h3> <strong>Filament:</strong> Inland PETG Post-Printing</h3> <p>After printing, the M3 nuts should be encased in the main part of the knob.</p> <p>Use the "M8 to M10 Nut Adapter" to make your M8 nut fit into the M10 slot between the main part and the base.</p> <p>Then, secure the base to the main part of the knob with M3x25 mm screws.</p> <p>Finally, press the "MazdaKnobAutomatic" part into the base. It's a<strong>very</strong> tight fit so you might have to put it on a table and whack it with a rubber mallet to get it all the way in.</p> </p></p> Category: Automotive
