The twist-out eye cup cracked on my binoculars, so I made this replacement.

I was upset to find that the twist-out eye cup on my binoculars had broken, as I could not afford to replace the binoculars. I figured I'd try to model a replacement, and it turned out better than I expected.
Printed in Polymaker PLA Pro Black using a 0.4mm nozzle with 0.1mm layer height. No supports needed.
It turns out Vanguard has fantastic support and offered to exchange for a warranty replacement on 13-year-old binoculars (very well cared for). My model is no longer manufactured, and I'd get the closest model, but I really love these. The "twist" part came out pretty easily (being cracked already), and the new part went in quite a bit more snugly (just for installation), but adjusts well, and performs perfectly.
