What did you 3D print today?

[BrickHaus]

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

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

I printed the muffler for Empire/Stella barrels sometime in the spring and it finally failed on me. It was really just the choice of material since it was that weird hybrid PLA sleeve with PETG core. But since it failed, I resliced it for my OG Photon and reprinted it in ABS-like. It feels super solid and will probably last much longer than than my FDM version just knocking around in my gear tub. LOL

Feel like machining 2?

[Frmrspec]

I know a user already provided their file for an 86 grip to print, but I’ll be machining one for myself and I use 3d print to confirm things before I commit them to metal.. it took printing one for me to realize how they were able to shift the grip forward while keeping all the dimensions the same.

also I previous models had the grips slightly off. Not a big deal on a 3d print.. but unacceptable when it comes to metal so I took the time to really dial in fit and mostly position. There’s a little extra meat I can take off the back but you get the gist.

Hex or square holes will be easier to print. The top of the round holes will droop without support

[Chemical-x.....ahain]

sometimes its okay to toss old designs or to simply try a different approach, its one of the things I really like about design and printing, I am free to try different approaches and test for my own use.

Four baffles, and unfortunately rinse clean only.

But it does work.

The green is a second revision, the pink was failed but I figured it'd be a good way to show the inner workings. I'll be adding at least an extra baffle and reducing the diameter. I played around and went with 2 walls and a 10% gyros infill i wanted to allow some sound absorption. Into the device itself. I also tried to emulated an air skive however I'm sure the skives arent at the right degree. I did feel as though the traditional precision could be forgiven due to the bluntness of the ball and it's slower speed in comparison to the real deal.

Also enclosed is the current printing, essentially a cross reference and then use the rotate feature.

Final pic is the drawing I posted.

10% gyroid, wall thickness of 2.

I can push it a little more than that, if this one is functional im going to print thick for the next and see if theres a beneficial db- difference between the two.
