This oddly specific doodad was designed to replace the caps over the circuit board mounted push buttons on a tc electronic BG500 combo amp. The original caps had pawls that retained them to the buttons but I opted for a simple friction fit design. This took a lot of trial and error to get the sizing right, I wouldn't expect that printing on another machine (let alone my machine on another day) would fit perfect but if you play with the scaling making small changes you should be able to get something that works. If it's oversized I would guess a tiny drop of something like e6000 would hold it in place, but be removable. I also created a parametric Fusion model if you want to adjust the “InnerSlotWidth” parameter. I landed on 2.575 mm for this.
