Print Settings

Printer Brand:

Creality

Printer:

CR-10 Mini

Rafts:

Doesn't Matter

Supports:

Yes

Resolution:

0.12mm

Innofil PETG

Notes:

Print standing on side for stability (extrusions will loop around hole, leading to much improved stability compared to printing laying flat). That's also why you need supports.

Print at 0.45mm extrusion width (0.4mm nozzle diameter) or smaller.

Post-Printing

1. Drill out hole if too small

My printer tends extend print perimeters by around 0.15mm. That's why the hole, as printed, was too small (around 0.7mm), and I used a 1mm drill bit to carefully make it the correct size.

2. Sand the part that touches the skin

I used fine-grit sandpaper to smooth out any layer lines, particularly around the side edges. You should wash the part afterwards if you don't enjoy getting plastic particulates in your eyes (ask me how I know).
