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.

What did you 3D print today?

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

Are those the ones from Thingiverse?Originally posted by evilfishsticks View PostOne 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.

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

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!

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+.1 Photo

On thingiverse, there are 2 jt logo versions, one with the lower mounting tab and one without.
