Xbox Stick Savers

These Stick Savers are meant to be attached to the thumbsticks of an Xbox controller to prevent movement (and hopefully any potential damage) while transporting the controller in a bag.

These are a remix of the Joystick Savers by Skylancer on Thingiverse. I ended up remodelling them from scratch mainly to smooth out the "wings", but also to build the hex filler pattern into the model so I didn't have to use a specific slicer or mess with removing top/bottom layers and adjusting the filler in the slicer.

I've taken my controller with me on a couple trips and so fare these have done a great job of preventing the thumbsticks from moving at all, so I can only assume they're also preventing potential damage as well.

Print with a 0.20mm layer height and 100% infill. No supports or brims needed.

After printing, they can be a little stiff to begin with, so I just used them like fidget toys and connected/disconnected them a hundred times while I worked until they loosened up.
