What did you 3D print today?

Created a roof scoop for an LED lightbar. Will be curious how it holds up to bashing (PETG for now).

Alexndl it's clear TPU. I plan on making a matching fore grip and grip panels for the cat.

I think I'll print the panels next, just to lick my wounds.

Always suck when it happen.

Which material?

24 hours into a 27 hour print....... I was at work to boot.

That feed is pretty sweet.

BrickHaus Yessir.

[BrickHaus]

You design this one?

Well, the Ender has been collecting dust for the past couple months.

I decided to fire up a test print with PLA just to make sure everything was working, and it was a dumpster fire. I had the choice of spaghetti or blob of death.

Put it back to CF-PETG, and it's perfect. I dunno.

Designed a new feed for the Trracer build, and other than some stringy bits, the "test print" came out great so I'm keeping it.




I'll be uploading the STL for this feed in the next week or so once I've refined it.

Now onto the commissioned work...

Couldn't find a GoPro mount that would work with the CRBN Zero's tiny vent holes so I made a quick one.

I dig this!

Printed this frame for my pgp that just slides on and has a built in speedfeed with a feedgate. was going for the judge dredd look of the lawgiver. silk gold pla. it works good got to use it a couple of times already.

This past weekend, I churned out this tpu buttpad for this stock. Its printed with 5 walls, and 15% infill with the lines pattern for max fluff.

A while back, skully/a5 proved his printing prowess by easily making me this AR compliant stock out of wood PLA. As I told him I wish I could print wood pla for stuff exactly like this.

We had to break it the model as it was too big for his print bed. , but he made a nice little biscuit joint in tinker cad. And I used wood glue to bond them together. It's kinda ugly, but it held up to my sanding it at least.
Tonight I hit said stock with some 150 grit, and 2x coats of walnut stain. It's cool enough.

A bunch of autococker bolts, pull pins, and retainers

Turns out Fusion 360 changed their thread builder since the last time I created and printed a design with threads. From what I gather the new builder is correct and the old one flawed. It just happened that the flaw make 3d printed threads work and the new ones are too tight. I adjusted the treads and I am printing up some test bolts and nuts to see if I need to go with variant A or B


As you can see orienting the faces to the build plate was a bad idea, removing the supports chewed up the walls on the face of the bolt.


This is one of the things I love about resin printing, fine detail.

Ive had the files, and the bearings on hand for over a year. Finally got around to printing a second filament roller for my other printer. It'll help reduce drag on my extruder motors.

I will have to give it a shot. I'll look on Amazon today.
