What did you 3D print today?

[ChoSanJuan]

Bought a Primal for parts a couple years back. Aired it up and it went nuts. The bolt cycled so fast and hard that it smashed one of the detents to bits and cracked the other one pretty bad. Finally getting around to fixing it since I'm in the whole Tom Cole/Bad Company EM1 mode, I remembered ermiller27 made full replicas of the detent cover models on here. Snagged them and printed them in resin. PERFECT FIT!







Now to pull the ball bearings and springs and that's behind me!

it will become stringy as hell on the TPU.
Also try spacing them out a bit more and doing one at a time, you'll get better result.

What machine do you have?
enclosed (preferably heated) get teh best surface adhesion, but TPU is usually pretty forgiving in that reguard.

Maybe? Lpr piston seats for ICD bushy lprs?

[ChoSanJuan]

Printed LackadaisyJackie 's Oni body for my Etha2 in resin. Now I've got twin dragons! (Contemplating doing a dye job on this one...)

I don’t have much experience with tpu and don’t have a Sheridan, but would ironing the top layer make the surface smoother? Seems to work with other filaments

X, I think this is your file. This is my first attempt printing with orca slicer, and my octoprint machine, so I just need to dial it in to make smooth seals.

Do you vary the infill pattern? I went with monotopic lines top and bottom, concentric infill at 100% in hopes the weave effect helps seal.

I can send you file I use for the Sheridan face seals, I print them out of tpu and they hold up great 👍

[BrickHaus]

Sheridan 12g face seals and or cci cup seals. I've got some parameters to work on.

Got a mini pc from lhamilton1807 loaded with octo print. I had a little time to try to get it working. Once it booted up and connected to my printer, I excitedly just printed g code from my old sd card. The end result was another tpu ICD cat foregrip. This one I was going to print in red, then decislded it would be cooler to swap to black after the sight pin was finished for a nice shooter experience.

A Christmas gift for my niece just finished this morning. First production print with multicolor silk and it turned out great!

I’m printing out a buildable robot for my nephew, a big Lego fan. Will post up pics when I’m done.

Credit to the designers. These are great models.

Shoutout to LackadaisyJackie for her amazing design! I had some print issues (this winter is wreaking havoc on both my FDM printers and SLA ) but it still came out awesome! I found some weird non-manifold spots on the inside, let her know and she quickly jumped on fixing it! This is after I joked about being too lazy to buy a new feedneck and wanted a PALs version.

Some things I wanted to point out:

Dimensions to the can are on point! I did zero post processing on the inside. I've had so many issues with other existing bodies where I had to use sanding sticks with the hexagonal portion to the outside of the barrel shank receiver section. Nothing on this one.

Other thing is that the feedneck ID is also a great size. No issues having to dremel out the hole so some of the oddball paint doesn't get jammed. Ran my R2 with 260 and 2 pods without any issues over 2 points.



Worth. Every. Penny.

Cal440 yeah once I get the grips designed I’d like to offer matching sets

[Cal440]

Really like that pump,would you be selling any in the future? I will be keeping a eye on your progress ,thanks

[nuclear zombie]

This is the third version, finally getting the fit just right. Next week I'm going to redo the grip panels.
