Ontopic The 3D printing thread

[Mr. Argumentor]

Isn't there some website where someone can print them for me? I'll still pay you for all your time!

100%
They're all over the place. We used to use Shapeways at the last job.

There is a company on 301 just north of the fairgrounds if you want to support local.

But, I did get it working again.

Thank you sooooo much.

 

[Mr. Argumentor]

I'd say it's my pleasure, but this stupid printer decided to really frustrate me a couple times.

Is mine OK as-is, or do you think I should send you a modified one?

You can send one, but I wont be able to print it till after their race.

Ok, time to start this E3D upgrade.
I can start the physical upgrades, but it didn't come with any instructions for the rest of it. @Jehannum What guide did you use to flash everything?

I used the teaching tech YouTube vidja.

I also have plenty of arduinos hanging out, though.

Alloy 910 is some amazing shit, I gotta say.

300ZX Blend Door Geartrain by gcdanie

This is a set of gears intended for use to replace the broken gears in a 300ZX blend door actuator. This includes all the gears in the geartrain except the worm on the motor, which I could not extract to model. Shown in the pictures is a small puller I had to make to remove the actuator arm...

I did that up in Taulman 910. Seems to still be going strong.

 

[Mr. Argumentor]

:sigh:

I hate this part. Connector that came with the kit doesn't match the board so I've got to find a crimper and such.

Yeah, I just got the collector's edition of small connector ends on Amazon, along with a crimper.

 

[Jehannum]

These ones:

Amazon product ASIN B0774TF39N
Amazon product ASIN B07JG8HVLG

I'm hoping one of the labs on campus will have them.

Could hack the connector off the end of the old thermistor/fan/whatever you're hooking up, and splice the wiring.

I thought about it, and I still can... but I just really didn't feel like fiddling with that particular part of it at that time. I'll check campus tomorrow and plan accordingly

Anyone done a direct drive setup?
I keep eyeballing it, but I figure I should finish this BLTouch and E3D Nozzle upgrade

Direct Drive & Hero Me Remix 4 for Ender 3 & CR10S by BoothyBoothy

I thought about it, but there's no use case for me currently that would drive it.

I guess you need it for printing flexible stuff, like TPU, but I haven't ever done that before.
