I don’t understand why someone would go through the trouble of reverse engineering/or more likely scanning parts; say they’ll share (produce) in the enthusiasts community and then not.

I don’t see any 3D printing here. I see more, of what I would do, make a silicone mold and copy the originals. These are flat, easy to clay up and pour copies…I’d say the top most image of the cast copy is a short shot, having an air bubble stop the material from poor venting near the boss…

3D printing is inherently not water tight through the very process, and, therefore would not be the best choice in this application.

Even a Stratasys Eden printer (would leave some stepping marks) in Tango black material or TangoBlackPro would be a poor choice given heat on a car roof in sun and the combination of the UV would destroy the print…this is in no disrespect to Stratasys, or their amazing materials, but I think they’d agree, their prints are for proof of concept, prototype purposes; not subject to warranty and series production abuses and longevity.

Hill Tseng, release the .STL files…please.

If not; for those of you looking for parts NLA, which is a shame for a seal/gasket on your roofs, try to find some and make copies;

https://polytek.com/blog/two-piece-silicone-mold-of-small-bust/

Ideally you’d use a pressure chamber with overfill and proper venting…

Sorry, my English is not very good. In fact, this is not directly printing out the product, we have a one-time mold and consider durability issues, can you tell me why I need to release the .STL file after someone fuxxing me??

I have no ideas and no comment on another not following through on a potential agreement you made.

I am asking that if someone else could benefit from the data, there are ways to share that so that parts/molds/etc. could be made through 3DHUBS or HUBS d com…and other locations. Or, if you have the capability to make parts, it seems people could benefit.

I know myself, and many others come to this forum looking for help, and more importantly to help others and keep our w203s the best they can be.

I don’t understand any potential agreement, I didn’t send any message to anyone saying that I want to sell this item or file. Why is this website so unfriendly?

I, for one, am always willing to help out a fellow enthusiast or forum member; especially regarding hard to find or custom made parts…
because I know, it will come back in spades.

(here are just a few examples…)

I tried to contact Hill Tseng and Piskotw203 via private message, but neither of them responded. It´s so frustrating to see someone did so much work and is not keen to share/sell it. I hope they will get back to us.
