Butt Cap Help?

Featured Replies

Anyone know of a butt cap in a similar style as these where I could get the center section off? I want to 3D print a decorative middle part and replace the stock disc that says ALPS in the picture.

Mudhole sells one with a black sticker in the middle that you can peel off.  I use them for butt caps when I want to encapsulate something. I peel the sticker off, put whatever I want in there, and pour epoxy around it.

Oh, so there's a bunch of room in there? That would work fine. Do you know which one that is? Removable sticker doesn't seem to be a searchable feature, lol.

Give me a few minutes, I'll measure.  I think I have one with the sticker peeled

It's like 0.112" deep with the sticker removed

Ok, so a little over 2.5mm. That should be enough for what I'm planning. Thanks!
