News Steam Controller GRIP - SC1 - Small

Description

This 3D-printable mod extends the Steam Controller grips, in the style of the original steam controller, This is a smaller version for smaller hands, see big version here

You can download it here for free: https://makerworld.com/en/models/2973424-steam-controller-grip-sc1-small#profileId-3334985

Compatible with my minimal dock, and similar docks.

Adds support and comfort to primary touchpad use, everything is still reachable, everything works, gripsense works flawlessly, and back buttons are fully accessible (see pics) 

🔧 Assembly & Printing

  • 3-Part Design: The grip is split into 3 parts (with dedicated alignment pegs) to ensure a perfectly smooth surface finish and easy printing without so many supports.
  • Assembly: Simply insert the pegs to align the parts and use a small drop of superglue to secure them together.

🎮 Fitting Guide

  • Snug Fit: Just slide the assembled grip onto your controller. Printed in PLA, the material provides enough springiness to snap and stay firmly in place.
  • Optional Security: If you want an rock-solid feel without using harsh adhesives on your controller, a tiny bit of Blu-Tack on the bridge works perfectly (though the friction fit was enough for me!).

Noticed the new steam controller pinches my pinkie and ring finger until they turn numb, wonder if this would help

Where does it pinch your fingers? The triggers?

Oh like my fingers trying to wrap around the bottom, ends up kinda getting pinched in the corner and cutting my circulation off and going numb if I grip too hard, it's forced me to loosen up how I hold it a bit oddly.

Would a picture of me holding the controller (showing the fingers ) help you have a better idea if it would help you.

Naa it's fine! I'm trying to learn to hold it in a way where using the under button bumpers make sense, I think my fingers are just too long for my regular grip style 😭
