This is a 'ring' to put on a shirt button to increase its size.
I have a couple of cheap but warm shirts with buttons too small for the holes, so they keep popping out. A fastidious person would replace all the buttons with larger ones. A lazy person with a decent 3D printer comes up with an easier solution. Make rings which push on to the buttons to make them larger.
I've included the scad file so if anyone wants to make these things,and to see how easy OpenSCAD is. They can adjust the size to suit their buttons. Just download OpenSCAD and run it.
