Tesla Model 3 Tissue Box Holder

Summary

This is a tissue box holder for a Tesla Model 3 (2022). I don't know if it will fit other years and/or if it will fit the Model Y as well.

I like to keep a tissue box in the car, but found that there was not a convenient place for it. When you need a tissue after a cough, sneeze, or spill - you want a tissue NOW.

This is my first go at sharing a design.

Make sure you use flexible filament, as it most probably will not fit otherwise.

I may have a future version of this that has a cleaner fit and perhaps does not require supports for printing. It may be a two piece setup -- we'll see!

I hope you find it useful.

Print Settings

Printer brand: Creality

Printer: Ender-3 S1

Rafts: No (also no skirt because its a big model)

Supports: Yes (I like tree supports)

Resolution: Super Quality 0.12 mm

Infill: 20% Triangle Pattern

Filament brand: Priline

Filament color: Black 1.75mm

Filament material: TPU Flexible

Notes:

I used tree supports and sliced mine with Ultimaker Cura 5.2.2.

Its a pretty big model, so I had to set skirt to NONE under build adhesion. Otherwise the skirt would be printed outside the limits of the printer.

See the image for my suggested print orientation.

How I Designed This

I like to keep a tissue box in the car, but found that there was not a convenient place for it. When you need a tissue after a cough, sneeze, or spill - you want a tissue NOW.

There is so much space on the dash, but I did not want to block my vision and have it slide around. I felt that the perfect place for this was behind the screen, with the tissues popping up just at the top of the screen.

I struggle with taking good measurements, and after some trial and error, I was able to get this design to fit snuggly in that space.
