Bambu Poop Chute with slide out tray

Update: 22/12/23

Uploaded a cover (shroud) for the slide per request from user. I haven't print tested this component yet, but it should print as per the image and the .3mf file using 0.28mm layer height in PLA, with outer brim and supports touching build plate only.

Also updated the v2 3mf files with better settings to improve print quality.

Update: 9/12/23 v2

After receiving my printer, I realised the CAD file I used to get the dimensions of the printer didn't include the feet… The updated v2 files now contain a floor for the slide piece which matches the bottom of the printer so that it's not floating in mid air. As a bonus, you also get slightly more volume in the bin!

I also added a small hole for hex key access to more easily secure the slide to the printer.

I have uploaded a floor piece to the v1 stl files folder which can be glued onto the bottom for anyone who has already printed the slide.

Also updated the handle for a better fit.

-----------------------------------

This is my first published model.

The design was heavily inspired by cm3dshop.de, but was built from the ground up so I could practice my CAD skills.

The slide should affix to the back of the printer using spare screws that come with the printer in the location highlighted in the image (for the X1C and P1S only). The screw below the chute can be replaced by one of the screws from the scraper that came with the printer and the one nearest the left wall can be replaced with any M3 bolt (like the one from the extruder or spool holder). This idea was taken from another model - I will edit to give credit once I find it again.

Sliced with variable layer heights to ensure smooth ramp and detailing.

Having print tested the slide, variable layer heights work well, and a support threshold angle of 25 works well for PETG (and I assume PLA), with normal auto supports. You can manually exclude supports for the two holes as it isn't needed.

• Infill: 15%
• Layer height: variable
• Walls: min2, more would be better
• Top surface: recommend 5 to increase the quality of the ramp
• Brim: no (use mouse ears if printing v1)

I have included the step files in case any of the dimensions need tweaking.
