Socking the Padlock

Sometimes I crave the audible click of my padlock, while other moments call for quiet discretion. That’s why I designed this “sock” to be 3D printed and placed over the lock to dampen its noise. It was made using flexible TPU filament, giving it a soft texture that absorbs sound well. The .stl file is attached here if you’d like to print your own. It’s compatible with standard Master style padlocks measuring 20x10mm. 20231006_220337.jpg 20231006_220337.jpg (112.91 KiB) Viewed 77826 times 20231006_220319.jpg 20231006_220319.jpg (129.91 KiB) Viewed 77826 times 20231006_222402.jpg 20231006_222402.jpg (124.11 KiB) Viewed 77826 times
