Great model, fits perfectly. Since I am using the Cover for the oscilloscope connectors I printed arminth’s remixed inlay.

Do you use the sensor with a BTT PI?
@NicReynolds_1682316 Nop, currently using a Pad 7 on this printer
The tolerances are pretty loose, but it still works great as a fun little fidget toy. (edited)
The print worked great but I wanted to add a USB-C connector that I had lying around. Since I did not want to re-print the model I carved away some plastic with an exacto knife and now everything is just the way I wanted.
This stand was the cherry on the top (or rather, on the bottom) of the most delicious cake, that is the moon rocket model! Thank you so much for putting so much effort into the design and the practicalities of fitting bits together. I haven’t yet put the internals in it, as need to source the requisite hardware, but will be soon!
Printed at 125%, given that my model itself was printed at 875%! I was really stretching the capabilities of my print bed with this…
Thanks once again for your great work!
@lewis That was fast! I'm really glad you liked it :)
@Lyrkan_460834 It's perfect, thank you. I unfortunately had to reprint as I ballsed-up and heat set some M4 sockets in, which destroyed the holes.
To add insult to injury, on the re-print, my black filament ran out on the last 6 or so layers (0.08mm) so franticly searched-out my Tintin comic to work out the most appropriate substitute. I went with grey (as the launch was at night and so the sand appears grey). However, all of the aforementioned is moderately moot as I do plan to sand/paint at some point in the not-too-distant... :)
Hi,
very nice design. I downloaded the files, and I have a couple of questions:
in the description, I see you mention the use of 4 F4-10M bearings: however, I don't see any 4mm diameter lead screw.. what they are meant for?
in the bottom corner part, under the 608 bearing housing, there's an hole with 10mm diameter: what is that for?
Thanks,
marco
Hi @MarcoPresi_1922588,
Thank you for your comment.
So, the idea behind those thrust ball bearings is to be able to bottom out the lead screw and support any axial load resulting from it instead of simply letting the pulley rest on the bottom 608 bearing.
You can see a crude representation of how it works in this image, they basically sit in the 10mm hole from your other question.
@Lyrkan_460834 very much clear now.. thanks for the explanation!
Hey, do you have an assembly video or insteuctions?
