Tesla Model 3 Console Tray with integrated USB Hub + J1772 Slot

<p>OK, so this is a remix of my own model here: <a href="https://www.prusaprinters.org/prints/5805-tesla-model-3-tray-wj1772-storage-slot">https://www.prusaprinters.org/prints/5805-tesla-model-3-tray-wj1772-storage-slot</a>. I've integrated a USB Hub into the tray. This essentially adds 3 more USB ports, which is perfect for me to have 2 working phone chargers (as the car comes with) but also room for my Sentry Mode/Music storage media + 2 Logitech Controllers for Tesla in-car gaming!</p> <p>The USB Hub to use with this model is the "USB Hub, RSHTECH 4 Port USB 3.0 Ultra Slim Aluminum Data Hub Portable USB Splitter" found here: <a href="https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B07RM322YY/">https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B07RM322YY/</a>. You will also want a short male to female USB extension cable. You won't need more than about 10 inches (25cm), so get the shortest one you can find at least that long.</p> <p>I designed this model so that the above USB hub slides into an opening in the back of the tray. The source USB lead comes down out of a small opening on the bottom. The USB hub has a front-facing USB port which the normal phone charger can plug right into and the hub's source USB lead can be plugged into the car with a short USB extension.</p> <p>Perfect!</p> <p>UPDATE: I've now also included "USB Tray2.stl" which is the same model without the J1772 adapter spot.</p> <p>UPDATE2: I've now added "Negative Mold for Liners.stl" so you can pour your own urethane rubber liners.</p> <h3>Print instructions</h3><p>I printed the tray itself in PETG so that it could survive hot sunny days in the car. I used 0.2mm layers. There is some ~15mm bridging, but they came out super clean on my MK3S =).</p> <p>For my tray, I used Overture Black PETG. Looks great in the car, but shiny black plastic is hard to photograph =/</p> <p>The Negative Mold for Liners was printed in PLA using 0.07mm layers. Once printed, lightly sand to remove any burrs or whatever, then spray with Mold Release, mix up a small batch of 2-part urethane rubber mold mix (I made about 50ml, but you technically only need 20ml to exactly fill the negative mold). I also added 3 drops of So Strong Black Tint for that black liner look.</p>
