Also needing some solution for my car, I decided to explore the options with 3D printing. I don?t currently have a printer, but a local friend does.
First thing was to teach myself AutoCAD. Somebody recommended TinkerCAD which was simple to use but soon became restrictive in use. So over the weekend I downloaded Fusion 360 which is free for personal use. Watched a couple of their videos and after a few attempts got to a point where I could create following in just 10 mins
So popped around my friends and after an hours printing I had my first prototype. To save taking seatbelt out, I made a cut halfway along one of long sides to allow fitting with belt in place. Looked promising but no flex in item, so removed and cut a couple of v shaped slots about 1/3 in from each end on inset collar. A tight fit but results look promising
Good excuse to buy my own printer now, so I?ll start a separate thread on that to pick peoples brains.
