Summary
This is a grip for the 8Bitdo SF30/SN30 Pro controllers!
(This is a "2.0" version of my 8Bitdo SF30 / SN30 Pro Grip that I made about a year ago: https://www.thingiverse.com/thing:2828968 )
Basically, its purpose is to make the 8Bitdo SF30 / SN30 Pro controllers feel more like a regular Switch Pro Controler by adding hand grips. It includes the holes needed to attach the 8Bitdo phone clip, and a hole to charge the controller without removing the grips.
The grips themselves were adapted form MagneticAlpaca's Pro Controller Grips, which I can't link to anymore since they were deleted from the Thingiverse.
I'm including a .zip file with the grips and the holder separately as STEP and STL files, so if you want to make the grips larger/smaller before attaching them to the holder in your favorite CAD software, you can do that.

DISCLAIMER: I've yet to print this Thing. Make sure to check out others who've printed it themselves ("Makes" section), to see real life pictures and observations!
Custom Section
Changelog (compared to the 1.0 Thing)
- The usb-c port hole is now larger, so hopefully it will be compatible with more usb-c cables.
- The bottom part of the holder was changed so that the whole thing is more reminiscent of a Switch Pro Controller.
- The top part of the holder (where the 8Bitdo phone clip attaches) was changed; it might be stronger, but it's mostly an aesthetic change.
- The grips were moved south a little bit, again to make it feel more like a Pro controller.
- Rather than tweaking the old model, I basically made this version from the ground up, so there might be more changes I don't remember.
Print Recommendations
I recommend using a raft to print these grips, since depending on the orientation you use, the contact area with the bed will be very, very, very small, which makes a raft pretty much mandatory.
I also recommend that you print this Thing as shown in the example picture above (45 degree angle from the ground), so that the layers are printed in a way that the mechanical stress from placing and removing the controller does not try to separate the layers, which is a common way for prints to fail post-printing.
Furthermore, use a large shell size, like a 2mm shell size for example. Otherwise, the top part of the grip (the one with the holes for the phone attachment) will be too fragile and break easily.
