What did you 3D print today?

[pghp8ntballer]

Not today but in the last week… testing out the new printer. The Bambu Lab A1 Mini with AMS Lite.

[BrickHaus]

This fit tight on my cat, and forcing it on cracked it to death... ugh,9 ours gone. I dunno what my issue is, but I'll spend speckled parts of my free time trying to get it working.

I'm about ready to scrap both of my printers and buy a more modern one. My buddy bought a creality K1, and he is printing 10x faster than me with 100x less issues out of the box. I've struggled to print anything at 30mm/s since day one, and I've tossed upgrades at these things the whole time.

I have a hero me on my other printer.it has served me well. Not sure it works with the Biqu H2 extruder I have on this one. All in all, I like the MAD better. It does require heat inserts, but it's a lot easier to assemble than my hero me.

I've had very good results with the HeroMe
I'm not sure what rev they're on now ...

Found a remixed duct for my aftermarket printer head assembly. It gives much more clearance from my print. Printing the clamping block for the above grip now with better part cooling.

[BrickHaus]

Finally got a part off my printer. Icd cat foregrip, not my design. It was on thingiverse. It makes a cat so comfy and can be used on other shooters like pro carbs.

it's not great, but I'll take it. Inland petg .2 layer height, no cooling. My duct kept snagging the print so I pulled the ducts and printed this. I think the lack of minor cooling caused the zitty over hangs, but they honestly add grip so it's no biggie. My friend made me the same handle on his creality K1. And it's much nicer.

Printing a new lower profile duct for my MAD now out of the same material. Hoping it doesn't clip prints. Then I'll print the clamp shoe for this grip.

I like the texture on it though. I think Plasti-Dip would dull the texture.

I've had success using Plasti Dip spray on printed grips.

It looks like a dovetail. But not sure if a cci feed tube is a dovetail.

But yeah I'd buy one if so. I have a few brass based guns with rails.

[RAZRBAKK]

BrickHaus I'm honestly not sure. I looked into it when I was trying to get accurate dimensions. Maybe I'll print a dovetail and test it out.

The Great Equalizer I'm not sure just yet. The sizing of this AC threaded body is a little odd. The threaded section is like 1.1" OD and I couldn't find pump handles to fit, necessitating a custom one.

Also this one isn't designed around the stock trracer feedneck. I'm not against a redesigned version for stock trracers, but I need to pick up a body to get proper measurements.

Let me iron out my current issues and we can talk.

[BrickHaus]

Does it mount on a dovetail? If it does I'd take one. Got a few shooters I'd maybe use it on.

[The Great Equalizer]

Thanks for the answer to my previous questions. I have set of Staunchy barrel adapters for a Trracer, but I haven't gotten around to getting a pump arm to fit an AC barrel yet. Are you going to be selling these?

[RAZRBAKK]

@Spider this is M3D "Performance PETG".

Gonna order a couple more spools to have on hand.

Just finished setting up OctoPrint on my thinkpad and it's running the first print on the new system.

Which translucent filament is that?

I have some 3dxtech yellow that prints pretty well, but I haven't done much with the transparency aspect.
