Description

This is a charger lock for a Tesla. I made this for a buddy of mine so I am not sure which Tesla models it will fit but I believe he has a model 3. This is just a beefed up version of some others I have found on here. The ones I had found were just a bit too flimsy so I wanted to make it stronger and more durable.
I have included 2 variations, one with a lock logo and one without. I was going to add one with a Tesla logo but wasn't sure if this would be copyright infringement.

Print instructions

Printer
Brand: Creality
Printer: Ender 3
Rafts: Doesn't Matter Supports: Doesn't Matter Resolution: .2 Infill: 100 Filament: GST3D PLA+ Notes: I recommend printing this with 100% infill for the strongest print and to reduce possible warping from direct sunlight exposure. I used PLA + but I am sure any filament would work fine. I played around with the fit but if it is too snug or too loose I recommend scaling it up or down to your exact fit. I also recommend printing a low quality test print to test fit on your charger.

Print price estimates

Planning prices for one print, not a final quote. Defaults use a size allowance inferred from the part name, not a measured or sliced model. Filament suitability must be confirmed.

FilamentUSD / printApplication notes
PLA$28.50Indoor prototypes; not a default material for hot vehicle interiors.
PETG$29.00General-purpose candidate; heat and creep need review.
ASA$32.50Candidate for UV exposure; verify temperature and geometry.
ABS$31.50Enclosed printing; review application and dimensions.
TPU$37.50Flexible designs only; not a substitute for rigid materials.
Nylon$37.50Moisture, tolerances and application require review.
PA-CF$42.50Filled nylon; abrasive filament and fit need review.
Pricing assumptions and exclusions

USD: ($6 setup + $3 finishing + filament weight × assumed spool cost × 1.25 waste allowance + print hours × $2.50 × material time factor) ÷ 0.65. Rounded up to the next $0.50.

Assumed spool costs per kg: PLA $25, PETG $30, ASA $40, ABS $30, TPU $45, Nylon $65, PA-CF $95. Time factors: PLA/PETG 1.0, ASA/ABS 1.2, TPU 1.6, Nylon 1.4, PA-CF 1.5. These are proposed shop rates, not measured production costs.

Design work, test fitting, hardware, shipping and tax are additional where needed. Multi-file sets may need several prints. Use actual sliced weight and time when available. Final pricing is confirmed in writing.
