What did you 3D print today?

[BrickHaus]

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.

No, I printed that 45 feedneck below in 95a on my ender 3v2 that's still bowden tube.

Spider! Does it need direct drive?

I think the stiffer (98A) tpu would be great, just a bit slow and relatively expensive. It can be really tough.

BrickHaus I've been looking at some other options. anson got me looking at some polycarbonate filaments. I haven't run the printer in like a month or more, hopefully soon I can get this guy going again.

[BrickHaus]

I wonder how a solid tpu one would fare. That, or pla for its ability to flex.

[RAZRBAKK]

BrickHaus Unfortunately the PETG is just so damn rigid and it snaps easily.

I took Rainmaker s tpu feedneck topper adapter from Thingiverse. I modeled a 45 * offset into it with the loft feature, and printed one off. Seems to work! Paint feeds, and it's sluggish on both ends. I think it needs more infill with the 45* in it. an empty rotor feels like itll wobble on you if shake it hard enough. A lighter hopper would be totally fine.

I may rip another off with 60% infill to see if the clamp force on the marker is better.

[BrickHaus]

totally missed this from my phone. I really dig that clamping one, much lower profile than the mozak I attempted.

Made a little cover plate for an old flex frame that was cut up for a Vortex fan.

That's cool, using two types of filaments, I've printed plenty of these using PETG, PLA and PETG CF , never thought to TPU

[BrickHaus]

skully/a5 fired these off for me on his printer. A skeleton 45 grip panel. First 9 layers are black petg. The rest is red TPU. I picked the settings and gave it " Fuzzy finish" for texture they turned out pretty good. Hindsight being 20/20 I think normal print settings, then heat sti need to get my e3 doing this kind of crap.

That and I've got some loose Gameboy and GBA games sitting in a box. Figured I'd have a cool way to display them. I bought a set of cassette cases without tabs, printed these inserts, and went to town in Scribus to make the "box art" so they don't look so drab.
