Gamepad can holder with clicky buttons

A coaster for gamers, so your drink stays on the desk and off the keyboard. The base is shaped like a controller, with a d-pad on one side and four green buttons on the other, and a pixel heart sits on the cup. Change the can width and clearance to fit your drink.

Slow down the first layers around the buttons.

Good to know

  • The 'disconnected bodies' warning is intended. The four buttons are separate moving pieces trapped inside the pad, so they have to be separate bodies.
  • The buttons print in place with about 0.5 mm of gap. If one sticks, press it firmly; a slightly warmer or slower print helps. I haven't test-printed them.
  • The multi-colour version needs lots of filament changes and adds about 40 g of purge. A single colour works fine.
