Simple Speaker Stands
We got a new TV stand and kind of configured it not quite the way it was intended, so it meant our soundbar sat a little funny in its spot. My partner said I should 3D print some speaker stands and well, this is what happened.
Like all good projects I started with some measurements. The measurements for the stands themselves were straight forward, 5x6x3 boxes. I didn't want them to slide too much so I found some extra pieces of bike handlebar tape and decided to add them to the bottom of the boxes. A lot of tiny little measurements.
Learned a new command called FilletEdge
Then I recreated the pieces of handlebar tape in Rhino so I could Boolean difference them out of the bottom of the box.
Then off to Prusa Slicer for some print settings. Kept it low quality and low infill, it didn't need to look amazing or be very strong. Printed them upside down so the cut outs didn't need supports.

But I am a sucker for a fancy fill pattern on visible layers
The final results turned out quite well. Some parts could have been tidier but for what they are, they're pretty much perfect.
Very satisfying fit
The pretty octagram spiral
And here they are fulfilling their purpose
