Been playing with many different approaches to a 3d printed hockey puck. I gave up on the leather texture and instead have gone for a nod to the original but one that instead looks good and prints easily. That means two pieces and a larger emblem.

I have it as two pieces now so the detail of the emblem is good on a filament printer (you need to print it at an angle with supports but the puck sides are printed flat on the board for best results with no supports needed. I have not uploaded these to my collection on thingiverse yet. I will provide instructions on printing when I do. If you have a resin printer the single piece form with the smaller emblem will work fine.

These were printed at low resolution. I will print a high resolution form, paint and assemble when I get a chance.

This is the '6.3-biggerhole' stl on my thingiverse.com page (that refers to the indent on the inside for the rubber bumper).

https://www.thingiverse.com/thing:6238862

This is a good compromise between ease of print and 'faithfulness' to the original design. I figured a single print design would be better for everyone and this does just that. This was printed at .12 with a .4 nozzle on a longer lk5 pro. It looks pretty good on my anycubic kobra 2 neo as well, same settings.

I have two models set, one for just screwing straight into, and another setup for threaded brass inserts (the better way).

Popped it on the garage bound car today. Could be just a hair larger in circumference but otherwise worked great. I have just bumped up the diameter to 105 from 100. Will have to print another one I guess...

I love the work but just an idea. I think if the crest was the same size as the factory used, I think the proportions, IMHO I think it would look better. Also, color filling and sanding may look very cool.

Shown is a real factory puck. Used it was like $450. On Ebay 15 years ago. I also had to try a few different leather puck faces till we got one that was good enough.

Awesome! Thanks for those measurements. I knew I was getting closer but now I can hit it dead on. Sadly the crest has to stay unusually large for the average printer to handle the detail and print on one go. Eventually I might create a normal sized crest version again but I don't want people trying to print it and getting terrible results. My mission here is a good looking nod to the original that anyone can print. If someone could give me a measurement of the crest top to bottom side to side, that would be great too.

@emerygt350

That emblem looks great.
What layer thickness are you using?
Did you do any post processing like sanding or trimming?

These were done at .12 with a .4 nozzle. Ultimaker 5.9 and a longer lkr5 pro.
No post processing at all besides removing the internal supports. I tried an acetone wash on one, but it didn't do anything I liked.

Is that 110 the diameter of the puck or the diameter of the 'bumps' at the base?

I think I like the look of the early version more.

Here we go again...

Sweet, so then the cylinder diameter at the base must be 109.5?

The other measure I would like is the height from the top of the 'bumps' to the top of the bevel.
