A friend of mine told me he have a 25mm stainless tubes he can cut for me, he said it’s 25mm and not 25.4. So i started printing the first patch of the parts from the Burly F group (25mm), the parts i printed so far are:
Bottom_Corner / BottomM_Corner
Lock-Corner / LockM-Corner
Top-Corner / TopM-Corner
Gantry_Spacer
Nut_Trap_Burly
My question is, can I use any of the printed parts?
I tested pushing the tube inside the LockCorner and it entered by applying a moderate force.
Hmph… I thought that might be the case, but I thought my other parts had just shrunk with the cheapo filament I had used. I’ll have to reprint my spacers… le sigh
I’m re-printing the parts, except the nut trapper.
I have Prusa MK3, I changed my printer settings to 0.25mm layer, print speed 100mm/s. But what made the most difference in the print time was the infill pattern changed it to rectilinear and it cut down the expected print time in ~15%
Yea, squares or triangles are faster infill and just as strong. The honeycomb looks cool, but sloooooow. I think the gyroid is pretty fast too, since it’s just curvy lines.
Save what you have printed and maybe down the road build a second.
I would re-print IMO. The time trying to get what you have working would probably be the same for reprint and costs.
