Mares I3 Mask Strap Retainer Button

(Note: SUBA Diving can be dangerous! If you are planning on 3D Printing your own parts for open water use, you do so at your own risk)

This is a replacement retainer clip (button?) for the Mares I3 Diving mask.

After my I3 mask broke during a rescue diver class, I tried to find a replacement part from Mares directly or from a retailer but, apparently, these clips are not available as single replacement end items.

I used Carbon Fiber reinforced PLA because I have used it in applications that require high strength and durability and it always has worked well. I would not use regular PLA. If I didn't have the Carbon Fiber PLA, I would have used ABS.

Be prepared to clean up the hole in the middle if there are any printing artifacts or if your material is too stiff. Dish soap is helpful for lubricating the part when it is pressed on. I used a small socket to press it on evenly.
