3D print clutch pedal extension

[JaybeM5]

Anyone 3D print the clutch pedal extender for the S550 ?
Be a great addition to the diy section if someone did and had the stl file to share.

I wouldn't trust the material long term.

I use this and it's great -

What material exactly?
It's not like the possibilities are almost infinite.

The part from your link looks useful, I would buy it before I develop something myself, that costs much more time (= money).

I can print ABS plastic so that shouldn’t be an issue.
it’s the cost of shipping that’s kills me. Nearly double what the part costs plus import duty and vat I’d have to pay.

I'm not here to argue particulars about why materials of questionable source printed through printers designed for consumer grade stuff and not backed by any sort of warranty or insurance scares me away from using it for anything critical.

We produce some items in the factory for consumers, and the steps and hoops and tracking we do on the source of the materials and testing to verify everything is correct goes far beyond what I believe people selling on amazon do.

If Ford wants to sell me a 3d printed part, I'd trust that. If you want to get clutch pedal extenders on Etsy.com you can, I just definitely would not.

3d printers just want to turn everything into a 3d print because they like the hobby. I get it.
