Anti-rattle curved plate guides for Core One L Skadis mod

The Skadis mod for the Core One L made by @lostinthesloths worked great, with the exception that the build plates would rattle in the rails when printing something that caused a lot of vibration.

Looking at remixes for the original Core One Skadis Mod by @scott I noticed several plate "clips" which also aimed to reduce or prevent this rattling, but I find having to keep a clip on the plates a poor solution.

Having printed and used the Antiresonance print sheet holder for the XL by @Surfalex2000 which solved the same problem by adding a small curve that kept the sheets in place, I wanted something similar for the Skadis mod.

While designing it, it quickly became clear that I had to combine both the top and bottom rails to ensure the curve worked properly. This also had the additional benefit of letting me change how the plates are guided to the bottom, which allowed me to support up to 4 plates.

I also reduced the width of the rails to allow using all of the surrounding skadis holes, the original designs actually prevented full use of two of them.

Printing instructions

Fully printable on the Core One L itself.

The models will require supports, but ensure they are only from the build plate.

I printed mine using the following parameters:

• 4 Perimeters for added strength

• Extra perimeters if needed

• Avoid crossing perimeters (mainly to avoid potential stringing)

• Scarf joint placement on contours

• Support:

  • Style: Snug

  • Pattern: Rectilinear Grid

  • Top contact Z distance: 0.24 (just to make it easier to remove)

  • Interface pattern spacing: 0 (to make the surface in contact with the supports look better)

• Complete individual object (again, also to avoid potential stringing)

I've included both a 3MF and bgcode that uses those parameters.

Example of where there should be support:

Assembly

The assembly is pretty much the same as the original, though I have made the magnet hole tighter to allow adding magnets without having to use any glue, and I've extended the hinge screw hole to go all the way through to allow for use of longer screws.

Combined lower and upper rails into one and added a curve to prevent vibration induced rattling of the build plates.

Also made it support 4 plates.
