VPCOK Sous Vide Stand

A stand for a sous vide immersion heater produced by VPCOK.

The pictures show a print of the original STL file, after which I discovered that despite all my measuring the bottom of the heater cylinder doesn't rest on the support as intended, and instead the whole heater rests on the bottom of the pot clip - works fine, and I wasn't about to re-print it all, but I've also uploaded a Mk2 version of the STL file which should have the heater cylinder bottom resting on the bottom support.

The change in the surface texture about 1/4 of the way up from the bottom is due to changing filament spools due to emptying the first spool.

Print Settings

Printer Brand:

Prusa

Printer:

i3 MK2.5

Rafts:

No

Supports:

No

Resolution:

0.35 mm

Infill:

10%

Notes:

Printed in PLA at 0.35 mm layer height for most of it (for speed) but used variable layer height on Prusa Slicer to reduce layer height for the slanted top surface.

After I loaded the STL into the slicer, I also scaled it to 100.01% before slicing to account for observed PLA shrinkage.

How I Designed This

Lots of measuring, printing of thin test sections to be sure things fit.
