Door handle bumper

This is a door handle bumper that slips over either a 19mm or 16mm door handle. The unused hole and middle part will protect the wall or other door from impact from the door handle.

I would have liked to make this a customizable design, but I am a total novice so I really don't know how.

This particular design is mine, but it is loosely based on a similar bumper that has been used in my home for more than 30 years. I have tried to find such a bumper for sale for a long time, but never been successful. Therefore this was one of the first items that I designed and printed once I got my Prusa Mk2S

Print Settings

Printer Brand:

Prusa

Printer: 

Prusa Mk2

Rafts:

No

Supports: 

No

Resolution:

0.2

Infill: 

20%

Notes:

You need to use a flexible filament for this to work. I used a no-brand filament, but I am sure you can use Ninjaflex or other such filaments.

I tried to print with both 15% and 20% infill and both work, but I feel 20% infill will give it the required stiffness and flexibility.

You should use at least 2 perimeters and 5 top and bottom layers to ensure the walls are sturdy.
