Modern-day MIG welding machines come with detachable torch/hose combos. Nice.
However, detached torches leave us with exposed connectors, and since the connector conveys both wire, shielding gas, control signal and the welding current to the torch, its internals are somewhat complex. I find the connector worth protecting, but found no protective cover/lid in the box. Alas, 3D-print to the rescue.
Here's my take on a solution. Thread is M34*2 and the design should fit any and all torches.
However, the OpenSCAD design file is present, so you can fit your own if need be. Remember to put the two library files (threads and smooth primitives) in the same directory as the design file.
To go with the cover, a matching lid for the panel-mounted part on your machine is available here: https://www.thingiverse.com/thing:6619984
