3D printed scope caps

[TxAg]

Printed some really nice scope caps for my Maven RS1.2 over the holidays. Assembly just requires some 1/8" shock cord and M3 nuts and screws. Mounted so they flip off to the side as to not interfere with bolt operation and allow visibility to the top ring level.

thanks for sharing these. decided to do a test run with your design before buying the scope bumpers. what size are you using for the rs1.2? my test was with the 44mm cap and it’s a bit oversized for the rs1.2 eyepiece.

 

[TxAg]

42 and 50 mm. I found they were all about 2 mm oversized compared to what the file said.

what size hardware did you use?

 

[rafiki]

M3 hex socket head but can’t remember if 8mm or 12mm ended up being the right length. i think i needed the longer

 

[TxAg]

Yes, I think I ended up having to use 12mm.

Curious if these are available for sale? I would buy a set in orange if available and comparable to the butler creek in price.

Thanks for posting this, OP. My son was traveling for work and had a huge 3d printer delivered to my house because he didn't want it sitting on his doorstep. I printed about 10 sets of these in difference sizes and already had some orange bungee for a tent project. They look great!

Let me know the size of your objective and ocular.
