Summary

A set of comfort grips made for the Nintendo Switch Joy Cons. These are suitable for printing in PLA and TPU. I've tested both and have had great results.

Removing support

            <div><p>Use pliers to wrench out the big clumps, nippers for trimming, and an Exact-O knife to persuade the support to break away.</p></div>
