Edit: Oh, just realized that you meant something like the 3D print linked in the article and not an end cap.

- Tabular-Iceberg 4y agoYes, something like McMaster-Carr, but you search not by the name but the shape of the thing. You'd probably have to take all their CAD files and put into some kind of searchable index, where the query itself is some kind of a CAD description of what you want, like a drying-rack-holder-upper.
- wongarsu 4y agoI would have gone with a piece of foam pipe insulation, available at any hardware store for about $3 (or McMaster-Carr [1], to stay at the topic of a one-stop shop). I think it's very much a case of knowing what exists and where to search for it, while 3d printing allows you to just think about what you want to exist. 1: https://www.mcmaster.com/pipe-insulation/flexible-rubber-foam-pipe-insulation/ https://www.mcmaster.com/pipe-insulation/flexible-rubber-foa...
