Automower rear sensor column for model 330X

This is a remix of chriswal's design for an Automower's rear sensor column: https://www.thingiverse.com/thing:4630244

The dimensions were slightly wrong for my 330X model so I corrected that. The sensor magnet is sized differently and the column itself needs to be 3.7 mm shorter for this Automower model.

Included are the .stl as well as the updated .scad files.

In contrast to the original designer, I did not have ABS handy so I printed using PETG material which seems to work just as good. The two big parts have to be glued together with the help of the pin. Superglue does a fine job with that.

Print Settings

Printer:

Prusa Mini+

Rafts: 

No

Supports:

No

Resolution: 

0.2 mm

Infill:

50 %

Filament:

PETG

Notes:

Usually I have to disable the cooling fan for better bonding between the layers for long and thin PETG prints like this. Without doing that, prints are very brittle and break easily at the layer boundary.

This is specific to the printer and its environment (temperature etc..). It will be different in YOUR situation! If you experince similar problems, turning of the cooling fan might be worth a try.
