---------------------------------------

I wanted custom size hole plugs, low profile plugs AND really cute plugs.  I wasn't sure a 3d printer could pull this off but it sure did.

Trick to make them look so good is to sand the top with 180 or 220 grit and adding a few coats of spray paint.  I printed on the Bambu Lab textured PEI plate, which left a strong texture but with no voids.  The sanding thinned down the cap and left a smooth top for paint to fill.  TPU works great too.

A Fusion 360 file with parameters (MODIFY > Change Parameters) lets you customize these.

Also included plugs sized for 3/8" holes with 1/8" and 3/16" depths.

Model features:

Tip: slightly countersink/chamfer/deburr the holes if the cap doesn't sit flush.
