What did you 3D print today?

Spaghet.



Working on a clamping feed tube. What did print came out really nice. Gonna raft it next time.



Almost out of Test-Print Grey!

I printed out a second version of the frame today. Unfortunately it was a case of two steps forward, two steps back. However, I at least learned a few lessons that made me rethink my first print and make it work. It took an o-ring sandwiched between the rear frame screw and the body, but it works. I’m still not completely satisfied with it in its current state, so the STL will have to wait. At least it’s working and playable as it is now.

I printed out my first prototype frame today. It’s close, but there are some tolerances that need adjusting. I had to mill out the slot wider using my drill press to even get the trigger to slide freely. I also discovered that if I screw in the rear frame screw that the hammer can’t catch the sear. Those issues aside, I think it turned out great. A few more tweaks and I should be able to release the STL to the world.

Yes, my buddy thinks they're a little too thin. Next ones i print I'll probably make them thicker.

One of the guys i play with asked me to print some jt ears for him that he'd seen. I only had blue tpu left but he likes them and wants more so i ordered more filament.

Are those the ones from Thingiverse?

Wow, that is sweet. I'd love to see a variant that takes the AR style grips as well. Looking forward to seeing how yours comes out.

[JonM]

Indeed you do. Based on a Benchmark slider no less.

Do i spy a round top frame for Sheridans? JonM

It hasn't hit the printer yet, but here's a preview of a little something I've been working on.

Besides the normal print calibrations and extrusion rates, my seams cause trouble as well on threads. On those coarse Tippmann threads, I used a Dremel disc to run on the root and both sides of the thread. That made the fit work.

Tolerances certainly were difficult, can't use any of the pre-designated thread tools in fusion because they don't give enough clearance. These thread together perfectly, all that's left is to fine tune the printer settings to get a better surface finish

The Great Equalizer it uses TipX mags. Files can be found here:

Those are kick-ass! I wanted to try a 2 piece print but I read from paintballdna on a Reddit post about making 3D-printed barrels something about tolerances so they abandoned it. Glad it came out well for you!

Thanks !!

Barrels, barrels, and more barrels. Started by wanting a short freak tip to match with a brass eagle avenger II I've been modding but the best file I could find didn't have the right threads so I made my own. Many hours in fusion 360 and many more on the printer has cascaded into a couple patterns for tips, freak tipx barrels for myself and a friend, and a vm68 threaded back that ushered me here. All printed in inland PLA+ on a Prusa mk3s+.
