Some days you need to cover your CGM for safety, and some days you have special occasions and want to bling them out. I've printed these for both reasons and gifted a few to the kids I coach.
This works in both PLA and PETG; it does need an overpatch to stay on, but there are ‘locking’ bumps inside to keep it in place while you deal with tape. There is a hole in the design as when you cover them completely for more than a couple of hours, the Dexcom tends to fail; I've put a solid overpatch on these for snorkeling a few times in ocean water with no damage to the Dexcom.
The base tape protector completely covers the Dexcom adhesive patch, so you can put this on and take it off without removing your G7. If you bling it, have patience and leave a gap for the tape
Bonus: You can add surface .svg designs in PrusaSlicer to add team logos, smiley faces, or “interesting phrases” ;)
Supports: On build plate or paint a + in the middle; the inside top will be rough
Infill: 20% works best, less than that has cracked during wrestling and football
Brim: Nope
Perimeters: Adding extra loses the flexibility the ‘foot’ needs to curve around the arm under the tape.
