3D Printed Nauticam Bayonet Cap

One of the things that struck me about the new bayonet system (apart from its great!) was that (unless I've missed it) there is no cap for the bayonet once you have it attached to your housing. I don't tend to keep my WWL attached, but once removed it leaves the front element of the port exposed.

8 or 9 trails later (might of been more. Lost count)

I made up a 2 piece cap for the bayonet system.

Reason for it being 2 piece was to get the front with the logo, so need to glue it. It does appear my printer isn't great at logos, so will probably go with something plainer next time.

Here is the finished project:

I don't understand the need to glue it together, you could just print with support material. Do you have the combined file handy for me to print a trial? What material did you use, pla or abs?

ABS. True on the support material.

Will print a whole one tomorrow. It's all still learning at the moment.

Here is the file.

Abs is always tricky, to get the temperature just right, and this is a wide part, but I've been able to get some pretty impressive detail with some care and good luck. I'd probably try this with pla at 50% infill and a shell 3-4 layers thick, and just print a few incase one ever happened to break
