Could you please make this for a Ultra 2 with a case?
I printed with a 0.2 mm layer height and 20-degree angled automatic tree support. I used 25 grams of filament and printed on the Creality K1C at 300 mm/s, finishing in about 1.5 hours. The result was excellent, and the output met my needs perfectly.
@Angel39 Nice to see and thanks for sharing! I am curious, was there a specific reason you used an orientation where you need supports;
So, I plan on doing this one though I have no design skills I would offer a suggestion. Rather than a light controller use magnets in a way similar to the klicky probe.. when in the upright position and the magnets make contact they will not only aid in holding it open but can act as a friction switch for ground. When rotated down the friction switch is broken and the LEDs turn off. For this I think I'll mount a buck to the rail and run the wiring along the rail and they can be on/off based on printer status.
@StevenMachado_426369 Hi Steven, that is a cool idea and can certainly be done! Personally I prefer the non binary (ON-OFF) behaviour we get with a controller since it allows for different intensity levels and different colours (if the strip supports it) which if combined with an RPi for example, can be configured to act a status LED (also when the LED bars are facing down). With that said, the idea is cool if you prefer just ON-OFF; besides the design changes, there will also be bit more work on the hardware side e.g. additional soldering and tacking magnets+cables neatly inside the bar base. At this moment unfortunately I do not have the bandwidth to work on the task. Maybe in the future if there is still interest..Thanks for your interest!
Thank you for uploading these files, I printed everything almost as described with PETG, but I did not change the GCode and the noses at the top broke off as expected. Then I simply glued the parts together with a lot of Würth superglue until now it holds without problems :)
I love my new filament holder, Thank you so much <3
But I still have a question, what do you call the small white tubes that are installed in the adapter where the filament is then carried out?
@Armored_1804882 Looks good! If I also recall correctly, during my tests when the small locking parts broke it did not make much difference as the friction from the contact was more than enough to hold it together. But that may be due to my printer tolerances.
The small tubes are just standard PTFE for 1.75mm filament. If I am not wrong, the original filament guide uses a larger diameter ones.
Turned out really awesome! Thank you. Printed with Prusament ASA Galaxy Black. PTFE Adapter with Redline ABS silver.
@Rene Neat print!
I have a 4cup Bialleti, so increased scale to 112.2%. Works, but the base did require some extra modifications to make it work.
Maybe some misunderstanding here.
But 35x75 needles were way to tall for the model, way than 5mm difference from the expected 35x70.
Also the hole is too big, so I'd expect to hot glue the needles.
Printed this in PETG black and Orange. Came out really well and holds my Dell 7770 great.
Prusa Mini with 0.6mm nozzle did it's thing.
42min for each of the side parts
1h23 for the bottom. I believe I printed the bottom part with 3 perimeters because my acer aspire v17 is pretty heavy.
I'll add some rubber or foam strip3s to the sides to protect the laptop and also to decrease the slack between the laptop so it stands more vertical.
Thanka for the design.
Well, it took much, much longer than anticipated, but I learned a lot on the way. Big thanks not only for the mod, but for all the documentation, changelog, readme and all the "boring" stuff you provided. It was invaluable and shifted your project from "Look what I did!" area to true engineering.
( I decided to keep the bowden extruder from nostalgia and tinkered the electronics box btw.) (And the fan shroud is this one: https://www.printables.com/model/34475-prusa-mini-rhd-fan-duct-rev-c) (edited)
Damn , I printed the whole thing as a single block
@VarunPant_715517 I missed this somehow... That was unfortunate! I added some info in the description to make the files/parts manipulation clearer.
