Motorola T42 Walkie-Talkie Collar Clip Adapter

Description
Brief Introduction
This collar attachment is designed for the Motorola T42 walkie-talkie.
It replaces the standard clip with a stable, flexible solution for collars.
The goal is a secure hold with quick access during use.
Idea / Background
The included clip was not reliable enough for my application.
The radio needed to be directly on the collar and accessible at all times.
Quick access is especially important during outdoor activities, training, or field operations.
This model solves the problem of a wobbly or impractical standard clip.
Technical Details
Recommended material: TPU (e.g., TPU 95A from eSun).
The clip area must be elastic so that the device locks securely into place.
PLA can be too stiff – the clip might not properly grip the housing.
PETG might work, but I haven't tested it.
Recommended print settings:
0.2 mm layer height
3–4 perimeters for stability
50–100% infill in the clip area
Print without support structures with optimal part orientation (clip opening facing upwards)
If the model helps you, I appreciate feedback, a like, or a remix.
Practical suggestions for improvement are expressly welcome.
