I feel like this might/should exist, but I can't find it. Is there a program that allows for replacement screw cap generation by simply entering a diameter, depth, thread gap, and thread pitch? Would be really nice to have something like that. I the meantime, maybe I'll consider printing tpu corks/ stoppers with mid diameter equal to vessel opening diameter.

Oh cool. Did not know about this. Already eyeballing some pegboard parts to make here!

Their files are wonderful. One thing to remember is you can reference/import the file and then project features onto sketches- things like mounting holes.

(For example if you’re slapping a psu into the design,)
