x56 Joystick Spring Collar Shim

I printed @terahurts absolutely awesome spring mod for my Saitek X56. It did exactly what I needed it to, but was just a hair loose, and there was movement and a jarring SPROING from the collar whenever I moved the stick. So this acts as a gasket between the spring collar and the twist lock at the base of the grip. Just a 10mm tall ring of TPU. Completely eliminated the movement and sproing!

Print in TPU with 100% infill and 3+ walls. Nothing special, it's a tiny piece. I used Bambu's blue TPU 95 HF to match the Saitek blue on the HOTAS.

Here's terahurts's model:

Even if you don't use the spring mod, this TPU ringworks great with the basic joystick, gives you a lot of extra grip to tighten/loosen the locking ring.

Enjoy!
