Lotus carpet stencil

[Tim]

I loved the detailing from the factory collection, but I’d rubbed out half of it getting in and out..

3D printer to the rescue! I’m going to make a few more tweaks so the bottom acts as a guide against the rubber, but I’m quite chuffed with the result 😃

Happy to post the STL file once it’s “just right”…

I wonder if you used a blowtorch instead of a brush…. 🤔

Is that not how you’re meant to do it? 😂

Awesome! Would love to see an Emira logo stencil too.

Brilliant, I guess a laser cut in thin ply would work well too.

I tried printing one but it’s a bit thin to get the brush on… will try again

For spray painting?

@Tim Happy to share the STL? My car is due a clean and the stencilling has rubbed off

Sorry totally missed this reply - here's the 3MF

Just tried to open the 3mf, Cura is telling me there are no models in it

Hmmm try again (just uploaded a new copy)....

Still not working, do you have the STL per chance?

Yup here you go - I printed it slightly larger than this (230 x 96 x 1mm).

 

[Joel]

Perfect, thanks, I'll get mine printing!

Had a buddy give a try today and it ended up warping. If it were thicker would it stay flat ?

@Tim any chance you could share the native file. I would like to have it made a few mil thicker.

 

[Joel]

You could try turning off uniform slicing and just scaling the z axis in your slicer?

 

[Nova]

Thicker may affect how well it allows brushing the carpet underneath. Maybe add a ticker stiffening frame on the four edges?

Yea, failing that, just scale the Z axis in Cura.
