Made an air mattress plug this week.
Over a year ago we lost the plug to our air mattress. A couple weeks ago my wife says to me "why don't you print a new one?" And so I have.
Took a few tries to get the thread right for the one way valve (24mm outer diameter, 30° pitch on the thread at 13 turns per inch). I then copied that thread model, reduced the diameter it for the inside thread and then reduced it some more for the plug.
Added a rubber flapper and some O-rings.
Inflated the mattress and now we wait and see if it holds air...
