Ear piece inserts printed

I've printed and sanded some of the ear piece insert blocks and their details



M8 screw to hold the printed nut and real steel rivets turned out to be a perfect fit when my printed rivets came out as a failed print. ;)

Screencap comparison

Assembled parts, except the nut because I couldn't find my thread tools.
I guess I'll just thread it at work during my lunch break tomorrow.

The leftover holes in the big block is for the "Mystery clamp" (plausible old camera mount).

Comparing with the screencap of the panels it does seem I made them too tall. The screencap isn't the greatest and may be angled more than is apparent but regardless I may have to rethink some positioning and dimensions.

As I've noticed on my Gunstick project as well as this one these things are hard to spot until you have physical parts to compare with.

Mysteriously looking at another screencap my panels look to be just right. I need to look further into this.





Here's the nut threaded and mounted on the insert.
