PETG / ASA

Published material guidance; still check heat, UV, load, and printer compatibility.

Starting setup

25% infill

A planning starting point only; wall count, orientation, and geometry often matter more than infill.

Slice the selected model with your final material, orientation, walls, and supports.

Saved setup guidance is used for material, infill, support, and per-file recommendation text; editable numbers are planning estimates only.

Description

Since my BMW 118d did not come with a cup holder and the 3rd party cup holders to put into the louvers where not particularly pretty or stable enough to hold heavier mugs, I decided to design and printed one myself. The model should work for all BMW 1 Series with this kind of center console and the steering wheel on the left side I guess. I also added a coin holder for shopping carts with a 50 Cents (€) coin in mind. The model is split into two parts to compensate for my small build volume. I printed the model on the photos in PLA what is sufficient for the cold temperatures right now but I guess for a better resistance to higher temperatures in summer I will have to print it again in something more heat resistant like PETG. There was a little bit of under-extrusion going on at the bottom part in one spot as you can see on the picture (light spot) but I am ok with that since I have to reprint it again in summer anyway. I installed the model by simply adding some double sided tape underneath it and it holds up rock solid so far.
