Ok, and here's the tweaked version for the 1/4" jack socket. This should work OK.
First one is a "normal" one. Then unmounted and mounted on the jack. The special one's about 2mm shorter because that's how far the nut is going to stick up. The nut and fitting are basically the same diameter, so it'll be exposed on this on. Nobody'll notice though.
I think I err'd a hair on how far the socket sits above the surface - it can go about 2mm further than I thought, so I'm going to print a deeper one. I got it on *way* too tight. Should be good when I print it a little deeper.
It'll cut it's own thread when I screw it on, so that's good I guess. It screws on well enough I could probably just leave the post off (I printed in 2 parts so I wouldn't have to use supports).
