This is a part between the floor and a castor wheel, fitting the castor wheel shape, to protect the floor and prevent the castor wheel to roll.

The 1950s Singer sewing machines had small steel castor wheels. If rusted, they trace dirt lines on the floor. This part fits snugly on the wheel, providing a smooth plastic interface to the floor.

The parametric design can be modified for other sizes and heights.

The bottom part of the part below the wheel is printed with 100% infill (4 mm thick) to carry the weight of the sewing machine.  The rest of the part uses 15% infill.

The parts where printed in PETG at 0.3 mm layer height.
