Nintendo Switch Joy-Con comfort grip for single controller

A palm-filling grip that a single Joy-Con slides onto for sideways two-player sessions in Mario Kart or Smash. The Joy-Con body is 102 x 35.9 x 28.4 mm with a dovetail rail on its inner face, so the grip carries a matching 10 mm rail with 0.2 mm clearance and a small lock lip at the top that clicks against the release button. Two rounded handles extend 60 mm below the controller with a 32 mm diameter to mimic the Pro Controller, and a cutout leaves the SL and SR shoulder buttons and the strap rail fully exposed. Print it rail-up with 2.4 mm walls so the dovetail comes out crisp. Open the ready-made model free, resize it on your phone or computer, then download a print-ready STL, 3MF or G-code sliced for your printer, free.

A shared STL is modelled for someone else's measurements. Here you open the ready-made model free, change it to your measurements in the viewer, then download a file sized for the part you actually own, free as STL or 3MF.

Yes. SpeakCAD slices the part on its servers with OrcaSlicer and your printer's official profile (380+ printers, including Bambu Lab, Prusa, Creality and Elegoo), and you download the G-code (a sliced .gcode.3mf for Bambu Lab printers). G-code sliced for your printer costs the same as the STL: included in every plan, free for a part you shaped by hand, 4 credits without a plan for a part with AI work in it. Pick your printer on the printers page to see its profile.

No. SpeakCAD runs in the browser on your phone or computer: the chat, the 3D engine and the live viewer load in the tab. The only file you download is the finished STL, 3MF or sliced G-code.
