Shower Chair Foot
Nobody stocks a shower chair foot on its own, which is exactly the gap a local print shop fills. We've made this style of part before and can usually print yours without drama.

Why these break
Feet perish in the wet and chairs wobble. The original was moulded thin to save cents at production volume. That was fine when the plastic was fresh — years on, there's no margin left in it.
How we reproduce them
Reproducing one is straightforward for us: we measure your sample (broken is fine, as long as most of it is there), match the profile, and print in a tougher modern material. Turnaround is usually within the week.
We print these in TPU. TPU is flexible and grippy, so it absorbs the impacts and vibration that crack rigid plastics, and it is kind to the surfaces it touches.
As with everything in our library: whether a part can be reproduced depends on size, load, heat, material, and having a decent sample to work from. Send photos first — the assessment costs you nothing, and we'll tell you honestly if a genuine spare is the better option.
