Installed some pot lights in my wardrobe the other day and was left with some unsightly holes I had drilled to route the wires. Inspired by the cable hole plugs on my desk, I drew up this two-part hole plug and cover to plug the holes and give it a cleaner, less obvious look.
This is designed for 26mm diameter holes, but can be scaled up/down to fit other sizes. The holes were drilled into the backboard of my wardrobe which is about 3mm thick. This is the thickness of everyone's favorite Swedish furniturestore's rear panel boards ;).
Took a couple of iterations to get the snap fit right on the plug and the press fit right on the cover, but these work perfectly for me when printed at 100%. The result is a clean look at the back of my wardrobe with plugs and covers that wont fall off!
Let me know if you have any issues/requests and I can try to release more iterations for different hole diameters and depths!
Printed on a Prusa Mk2.5s in black PLA with 0.4mm nozzle at 0.2mm layer height.
Reccommend using PP, or other less brittle material to ensure the plug snaps on without cracking.
