I recently bought a used Nintendo Switch and realized, that the joy-con's thumbsticks weren't the best anymore. But 3d-printing to the rescure. I ripped off the original rubber from the thumbsticks, measured the plastic underneath and modeled these thumbsticks to press fit over the original plastic. I made the caps a little different to the original ones, as i always felt slipping because of their shape.
Printing instructions:
- Print in TPU with 100% infill
- print laying flat on the printbed (opening facing the buildplate)
- Use supports touching buildplate (I used 30% grid supports)
- Print with fuzzy skin feature for a better grip experience
