New Nintendo 3DS XL ergonomic grip smooth

thingiverse

I printed the model from Luckystrykx, but I have to admit that I wasn't impressed by its feel due to the noticeable gap on one side. The sharp edges were another turn-off for me, so I took matters into my own hands and used Meshmixer to smooth them out. I highly recommend printing this model at 97% scale using PLA as it tends to shrink less than ABS. Additionally, make sure to rotate it 45° towards the back and print with a raft in place to prevent sharp edges from forming at the bottom of the part. As soon as I finished printing it, I'll be uploading a picture for everyone to see. Update: I just printed the grip in bright red PLA at 97% scale, and it fits perfectly! The surface looks fantastic thanks to the clever 45° orientation of the part.
