Hi all,
I’ve finally gotten around to releasing these formally after much testing of prints and usage.
The Twystlock system is a set of 100% 3D printable gaming accessories that require no printed supports or additional parts. This means no springs to buy and no metal elements to melt in, just access to a 3D printer and a bit of super glue. Originally designed for the Steam Deck, these accessories can be applied to the case of any mobile gaming device.
The Twystlock connector itself is designed as a quick-connect that secures parts together with a simple twist motion, can be fully recreated with affordable home-based 3D printers, and doesn’t require complicated supports to print. The first use of this connector has been for the Steam Deck, specifically to supply an alternative accessory platform that is more accessible to the everyday 3D printing hobbyist, however it could be utilized as a connector in almost any environment.
Feel free to download what you like, and if you would like to request a new accessory design, or vote on the next accessory to be created, please visit our Lemmy community at https://lemmy.world/c/twystlock@lemmy.nowsci.com.
oh dame, this is so cool. Gonna print the belly support for my deck
Will it fit in the case with the nub on the back?
sorry to disagree.
my steam deck does not fit (comfortably, maybe if I were willing to force it more) in the case, with the Nub attached to the back.
I love the Idea, and I’ll keep the parts I printed to use it when I have explicit use to attach the deck somewhere. But I don’t think the attachment will just live there
