I needed an outlet spacer for a light switch I was installing and decided it would be easier to print one rather than drive out to Home Depot, so here it is! It is made with the exact measurements of the outlet spacer I got in-store and it fits perfectly.
This one is 1" in depth (height when printed laying down) so that you can adjust the height by percentage and easily make a 1/4" (25%), 1/2" (50%), or any other depth spacer you could want. Model measurements are in mm. No supports needed/possible when printed lying down, which is recommended. I used PLA which worked perfectly fine; my only suggestion would be considering a small brim for adhesion due to the thin object.
Last thing: I personally used this to make very custom spacers for slanted electrical boxes by measuring the depth from surface of wall to box at the top and bottom (or left and right), making the spacer the larger height, and using a wedge in Tinkercad to make it slope down to the smaller height, thus producing a s
