Started out 3D printing a few “nubs” to sit on top of my Eufy robo-vac to keep it from going under the couch and getting stuck:
Then one of them snagged on a lamp cord…
Not good. On to the Mark II bumper:
It’s rounded! That won’t snag on anyth…
Ack! Hmmmmm… Glowforge! I need you!

That’s awesome! Is there anything as satisfying as creating a solution to a perplexing problem?

Wonderful! And I think the GF bumper looks better than the 3D printed ones. Makes it more uniform, like it was supposed to be there! Great job!

Thanks, but the (third-generation) 3D-Printed ones are still there - if you look UNDER the GF piece you’ll see they’re holding the GF bumper on!
Right now I’m printing a TPU (rubber-like 3D-Print material) cover to keep the GF plywood from scratching any furniture legs…

This worked out lots better than what I would have done for a solution - lowered the couch.
