So this is for a more popular team which I've been told isn't doing so well this year. And when I said "what's new", I was told " you know where you can go".

For those who asked last time this is all printed in parts and assembled together in one print like so

Files are again available on Printables and Thingiverse though this model is bigger. I shrank it down in the x and y in my slicer by 50% for these prints

Just curious, when making this how much tolerance did you account for? I want to make some for baseball teams, but wasn't sure how much to add.

On my ender3 it was somewhere between +-0.05mm per wall. But with my Prusa MK4 I didn't add any.

I would say to do a test print first and see how well it fits. For me smaller parts are quite snug but fit well enough while larger prints require some glue to prevent them from coming undone.

.05 on my ender 3 s1 sounds perfect based on the tolerance tests I've run. Thanks!
