Give your IKEA VAPPEBY Gen3 Speaker a sophisticated transformation with this GRID kit. This download includes the pictured Cover, Volume Dial (+ Bonus Studio Dial), and Grid Handle. (The power button can be downloaded seperately here)

Printing Guidelines

Handle:

• 0.16 mm layer height
• 4+ walls, 15%+ infill (use your discretion to make a strong part depending on the filament you use)
• No supports required

Volume Dial and Cover:

• 0.16mm layer height

• 2 walls, 15% infill

• No supports required

• For the Volume Dial, start with an opaque filament, and swap to a transparent filament above 2.4mm if you want the sides to light up (I also did a few layers of Black between the white and green to block more light from the front)*

  *For the Studio Dial, start with an opaque filament, and swap to a transparent filament above 8mm (at Z height 11mm if you want it to line up with the cover)

Assembly

Handle:

• Use the original screws for the stock VAPPEBY handle to connect this part
• Do not overtighten the 3D printed screw. That will cause the layers to be ripped apart.

Cover:

• Print four of the cover pins. Connect them to the back corners of the cover with a 1/4 twist clockwise (You can use pliers if the fit is tight).
• Cover should press fit into the existing rubber holes on the speaker.

Studio Dial:

• Optionally print the 'Studio Dial_Indicator' in another color and glue it into the divot on the Dial for an orbiting indicator (the orange dot shown in the photos).
