3D Printing thread

[GrizFyrFyter]

As others have said. You can't get muchore for the money than an ender 3but the prusa is a slice of heaven with how easy it is to use and the quality of prints it produces.

None of it is idiot proof though. There is a lot to understand with setting files up for printing, I compare it to learning how to keep a reef tank.

I only have an icecap 3k or I would make one.

I have been planing on modeling up one for my 3K pumps but i just do not have the time right now. I am literally 2 months behind on work and im meeting with a Customer tomorrow to sign contract for a bath renovation . He is willing to Wait 3 months or so if need be

Ive made a screw based one, if you want :). Works with glass up to 1/2” (though can easily change). The screw goes below the rim on a rimless tank- assuming small rim.

Thank you I love it! I will use this for my rimless tank!

What diameter tubing are you using? I’ll upload it to thingiverse.

That is fantastic, I was just about to look for something similar.

1/4" OD! Thanks!

Let me know if you try it!

@dantimdad this is why you need to get one.

PETG Bridging on a vented power supply holder. Because supports are so 2017 :eek:

If I had a grand laying around....

True. I don’t mean it that way. If I wasn’t doing it commercially, I definitely couldn’t justify the cost either. I love my Enders.

 

[dantimdad]

I will get one later this year. Wedding first then finish remodel. The prusa and store. ;)

The funny thing is I have a total of $300 in three ender 3 including upgrades. LoL!

I got one for shipping cost for doing a video, one on sale for $163 including shipping and one for free for a customer service issue. Bought some upgraded Bowden tubing, aluminum extruders and extra nozzles.

:D

Lol that’s awesome. I usually spend around $220 per unit- $180 for the printer, $15 on a nice glass bed, $10 for the aluminum extruder, and $5 for stiffer bed springs. I also have three- one has .8 nozzle with Volcano hotend for large personal things (woodworking jigs, fixtures, organizers, etc), and the other two are standard.

Printing has made me lazy with woodworking lol. If it’s something that requires measurements, like installing drawer handles or hairpin legs, I’ll just print a guide rather than measure.

I have just started printing jigs. It's very convenient.

Especially when you order things online- most sites have the hole layout of their items, so it’s very easy to put together a basic 2mm thick guide.

At one point I was trying to market installation guides for apex products with integrated bubble levels. Failed product because the market is too small, and it doesn’t really need to be perfectly level.

Maybe but very cool nonetheless.

Print turned out great. Unfortunately I didn't actually measure my QT rim so it doesn't quite fit (clip is a bit long), nothing gluing a spacer won't fix. Thanks.

 

[dantimdad]

What filament is that @Entz ?
