My original band broke, and I replaced it with a printed version closely modelled on the original. Well, that broke too, which I take as a sign to stop copying something designed for injection molding and make something specifically tuned for 3D printing.
This uses the original black friction sliders and screws, but otherwise the rest of the band parts can be tossed.
Designed in OpenSCAD, badly. You might need a newer version as older ones don’t support the angle in rotate_extrude().
