I need to print some improved tubing connectors, 3 different types - 80 Pcs total, for a pair of crappy shelving units my Wife bought off of Walmart. The originals were as minimal material as possible without missing the nylon tree completely.
The Klipperized Mk3s with a .60mm nozzle is nearly as fast as the mini with a .40mm nozzle. Once again proving it’s not how fast you say you can go, but how fast the parts let you go…
It could be a fun project for the kids. A bit of googling should get you more information on different brands printers too. Plus all the open source projects available to do mods and accessories that can require some basic to moderate programming skills to be learned.
I know how hard it can be to kids to have enough fun to learn about how to use technology. I spent a few years teaching CAD and 3D printing to kids in school. I also tried to get the machine shop up and running again. But the school would not allow it.
Ah I’m talking about college students, I run a makerspace on our campus. But yeah, would be cool for a younger demographic as well.
