  • INDUCTIVE SENSOR RACK AND PINION – DRAKON EXTRUDER BODY 3D Print Model

    INDUCTIVE SENSOR RACK AND PINION – DRAKON EXTRUDER BODY 3D Print Model

    Summary
    THIS IS A MANUAL ADJUST SENSOR CARRIAGE FOR AUTOMATIC BED LEVELING.
    -THE MAIN PROBLEM I HAVE WITH AUTO LEVELING WAS THAT SOME TIMES MY BED (MADE OF 3MM PLYWOOD) WOULD POSSIBLY WARP.
    -ANOTHER POSSIBILITY IS THAT MY X_AXIS WOULD FLOAT OFF OF THE LEAD SCREW A LITTLE BIT IF I DIDN’T PRE-HEAT BEFORE I AUTO LEVELED.
    -THIS ALWAYS MEANT I HAD TO REDO ALL THE ADJUSTMENTS BETWEEN THE X-AXIS AND THE SENSOR HEIGHT. I ALSO NEVER QUITE LIKED THE ADJUSTMENTS IN AVAILABLE IN THE FIRMWARE REGARDING SENSOR HEIGHT.
    -THAT IS POINT OF THE RACK AND PINION CARRIAGE FOR THE SENSOR. TO DECREASE TIME SPENT ADJUSTING ANYTHING MECHANICALLY AND IN THE FIRMWARE/SOFTWARE.
    -DECREASING THE WEIGHT AND SIZE WAS ALSO MY GOAL, TRYING TO KEEP THE SENSOR AS CLOSE TO THE NOZZLE AS POSSIBLE.
    THE PINION HAS A PRESS FIT INNER DIAMETER THAT SHOULD STAY IN ITS PLACE PRETTY WELL AN IF THERE IS ANY MOVEMENT I ADDED A HOLE FOR INSERTING EPOXY TO REALLY STICK THE GEAR TO THE BOLT.
    HARDWARE USED* [NOT INCLUDING ALL HARDWARE USED WITH THE DRAKON MOUNT ITSELF]
    1- 4MM X 16MM WINGED BOLT (I IMPROVISED ON THIS MYSELF WITH A WING NUT AND A BOLT, USING PLIERS)
    1- 4MM LOCK NUT
    THERE IS A TOOL ADDED THAT IS USED TO HOLD THE GEAR IN PLACE AGAINST THE RACK WHILE YOU THREAD THE BOLT THROUGH THE GEAR TO KEEP IT FROM MOVING.

  • Cup holder mount for inductive charger 3D Print Model

    Cup holder mount for inductive charger 3D Print Model

    Summary
    I wanted a convenient way to hold my phone and charge it without fumbling for cables every time I got in or out of my vehicle. This is designed to fit a 2014 F-250 cup-holder with the rubber insert removed (camelback water-bottle sized). The phone clamp portion printed very easily, but the cup section required quite a bit of tweaking with the supports to get it right. Initially printed upside down, but the final version was right-side up. Printed in ASA on a Taz 5, 255 c extrusion temp, 105 c bed temp.
