TM PSG-1 scope plate & knob

cults3d

The scope on my PSG-1 was missing the decorative plate and the fake knob. I used another to get the measurements and design. There are 3 pieces to this: the plate which is glued into the slot on the TM PSG-1 scope, the fake screw that needs to be printed 4 times and glued into the cavities, and the knob which is popped onto the shaft of the plate. I have designed the plate to be flat on the bottom, even though there is a cavity beneath. The spot underneath has an odd shape and I did not want to risk the remnants of using supports to change the height of the other shelf since it currently sits at exactly the right height. Gluing this plate on the available surface area has been more than sufficient in my tests of dropping, rolling, and smacking the scope. The knob has two versions: the "fixed" version was designed to pop over the shaft of the plate. This has a recess that lines up with the ring on the shaft, locking it in place. The "fixed" version has a tighter tolerance and does not rotate on the shaft. As it was a decorative piece, I figured this was an easy way to avoid needing to glue another piece into place. There is also the "spin" version which has more material cut away, allowing it to spin. There is slightly more resistance on this than the stock TM PSG-1, but still has the ability to spin.
