    No, not 3D printer - laser cut from 5mm acrylic.

    Just done some for my arm cable and am going to do a similar thing for the arm cable clamp where it exits the deck (I've never been happy with it).

    Did you use EIHL pucks? Or did you go for the NHL ones?

    I used an uneven number of each so as to avoid unfortunate resonances.

    I could send you the DXF file - would need you to PM me your email address though. However, it's a 2D file and is not appropriate for 3D printing. To be honest, it's not a difficult thing to draw up yourself.

    He could loft the lines in the DXF file in any 3D cad application to make a solid suitable for sending to a printer as an STL file.

    I think you should manufacturer them...

    Yes, you are quite right - extrude the profile by 5mm and job done. Still, half the fun is drawing out the design and this is as simplistic as it gets (well, I suppose there are even more simplistic things).

    What an interesting idea, nicely executed.

    Do you hear sonic changes / benefits?

    .... I can just imagine the way this thread may have gone on a certain other forum ....

    So do I - a great idea - but you'll have to make them look more "bling" and charge a small fortune for them otherwise they won't work!

    Is there a reason for the hole in the middle - is this in case you need to attach to something else?
