What did you 3D print today?

Late reply but just saw this thread. I believe those are seams. They get printed for roundish type prints and there is a default location that the slicer puts them but most slicers I know allow you to specify where the seam goes so you can put them in unobtrusive locations as needed.

Yeah, as my experience grows with Prusa slicer I found I can add the option to have random seam placement so its not one line like those pots.

very clever!

Printed some stands for staining/painting. Super easy and quick print

Front Runner’s drip rails clamps suck. Mine keep coming loose. They are just squared off sharp metal sitting in the rail and the bottom clamp bottoms out before tightening enough. So I printed some compressible TPU covers to hopefully help hold things tighter.

I wasn’t sure about thickness so I made the bottom clamp cover reversible.

My most recent print was TPU latch covers from my home made GFCamper style cap.

And finally mounted the ring holder I made for the Mrs

Anyone have a 3d model for this?

Anyone have ideas on this? My lines are starting to space themselves out, almost like the nozzle isn't squishing the filament enough. I've tried resetting the z offset and even lowering it by .05 once I set it, all belts feel fine, I ran recalibration a few times. Strange thing is, in the last photo you can see the nozzle priming strip lays down pretty nice, but the actual print does not.

If I allow it to print it will eventually get rough and messy and start catching the nozzle.

Last night I printed the only duck I'll have on the dash...

A couple of years ago, I started carrying a dewalt chainsaw. I carry an electric impact gun which already beats pneumatic in every way. They can share a large battery and I carry a charger. I’m really impressed with how much you can do with the dewalt DCCS620 and how long it will run. Trying to chop a tree trunk in half that’s suspended over a trail and bouncing is just goofy at this point. The problem with the Dewalt is that it leaks bar oil like a sieve. There are partial fixes documented online which I’ve performed, but all chainsaws leak a little and this one despite the fix still leaks. It’s not enough to make a puddle but it’s enough that I don’t want a small slick or bar oil in the bed of the truck.

So I printed this tray. It still is going to get an oil absorbent pad added and cleaned up shock cord, but this is basically the finished product. The holes for the shock cord are slotted on one side for easy removal. I’m going to add some pull tabs and clean up the cord a bit. One nice thing about this tray is outside of the truck I can put the saw wherever and not have to worry about my floors anymore.

It’s PLA+ with 100% infill where the cords mount and standard 15% everywhere else. My chainsaw mounts under the Diamondback. Obviously for outdoor mounting/storing you’d want to use ASA or something else.

A spacer I designed for the bed outlet so that I could run 2 6AWG wires out of an existing hole to an Anderson plug mounted under the bumper for my camper. Printed in ASA, it has 2 holes for 1/2 NPT cable glands. I’ll post a link to the file. To route the cable, you will need to enlarge the hole a little bit. You will also need to reuse the gasket between the outlet and the spacer and make a foam or rubber or PLA gasket between spacer and the bed to that the glands clear the bed and it’s watertight.

what material did you print it in? Any issues with engine compartment heat and warping so far?

ABS/ASA and was running the red one for a couple months with no deformation noticed. Had a PETG prototype one installed for about a month over the winter and saw some deformation from that.
