My wife was looking for valve caps for her new car and I promised (weeks ago) to try to get something that'd interest her.

Weeks later, I stumbled upon the Parametric Tardis model by Gossamer and I barely had to do any modifications. I pretty much took the "Small" tardis into Tinkercad and widened up the hole a bit. This is NOT threaded, so it should be an easy print. You simply print these out standing up and screw them on - the threads should cut into the soft plastic and be, more or less, affixed.

Feel free to size down 5% for a tighter fit, but I felt I was forcing it at that point, and ended up at the size it is now.

Print Settings

Printer Brand:

Monoprice

Printer:

Maker Select Plus

Rafts:

Doesn't Matter

Supports:

No

Resolution:

.1, but probably doesn't matter much aside from the small size

Infill:

20, but I'm not sure it matters much

Filament: eSun PLA+ Blue, of course.


Notes:

You could probably get away with .2 if you want a faster print, but you'll likely lose a lot of the already fine detail.
