Print Pusher

I designed a print pusher to minimise touching the print plate and assist in removing purge lines, brims and some prints from the print bed.

Originally I designed a similar shaped part to hold an eye bolt allowing rotation and the flat back was helded to frame with 3M strips. However I had a spare next to printer and after printing wanted to remove printed parts from the bed (and not using the flexible metal scraper) and decided to use the flat part as slider and its body to knock parts loose.  It seemed an easy way to slide and knock parts off and avoid needing extra effort with finger nails or even touching the print plate. Since then I've been using it all the time.

Do you need this?  No, but I hope you find it as surprisingly useful as I have and strangely satisfying to knock parts off.

Seems more handy for smooth or satin sheets in terms of brim and purge lines.

Printer in PLA with .20 layer height.
