Emmy's dragon & blossom screw-on lens cap

Gives your lens a cap that's clearly yours, so it never gets mixed up on a shared camera bag. A raised pink dragon, blossom branch and name sit on the black top, and the ribbed rim helps you get a grip. Change the thread size to fit your lens.

Assembly

  1. Press the cap straight onto the lens front. The clip legs flex in and the catch bumps snap behind the lens lip.
  2. Pull it straight off to remove.

Good to know

  • I haven't tested the fit on your lens. If it is loose or tight, change the Clip catch bump slider (0.2 mm now) or Fit diameter, and print a quick test.
  • The report still lists some small thin ledges near the dragon's spines and about 1 g of possible support on the 45° flange and catch. Check the first print and add a brim or tree support if needed.
  • The name strokes are about 0.7 mm wide, so print at 0.12–0.16 mm layers and check the lettering.
