You're probably thinking "What is Superflex posting this useless thing for?" Well yes, in and of itself it is entirely useless but.can be used to replace screws when designing to hold boards with common 3mm holes. Now there are others like it I know but 3d printed PLA wouldn't be your first pick to make it to the finals if you were building circuit board standoffs. I tried various designs but printability (spellcheck informs me I have just invented a new word) and elasticity of PLA poses some unique challenges. This design attempts to take into account both of these elements and appears to function well for at least one cycle of mounting a board. The standoff when pressed into the hole marginally deform uniformly in the process as opposed to totally relying on elasticity of two narrowly formed sides as others do. This more common method falls painfully short when printed in PLA. Behold the lowly PLA standoff. Less significant than the merits of two vs single ply toilet paper but hopef
