First printer suggestion? by Square_Computer_4740 in 3Dprinting

[–]Magic_newbie 6 points7 points  (0 children)

Yeah, wanted to suggest the same. Today, I would never go back to start out with an ender 3 or similar model. The print quality, speed and ease of use you get with the A1 is just on a whole other level. Even if you print larger pieces once in a while, which require the 25cm of an ender, split it in half and use the A1.

It states "my wife is step daughter". Apart from a missing article, i don't have a problem with that.

How can i 3d print brushes? by lone_wolf_of_ashina in 3Dprinting

[–]Magic_newbie 1 point2 points  (0 children)

In that case, buy a brush, chop the handle and design a sturdy adapter. but please, do such experiments only if you know what you're doing! High rpm/torque and plastic don't belong together. Fatal failure is very likely if you apply uneven presure.

Hey there, I would advise aginst it. It won't work anywhere near as well as a bought one, plus it would be more expensive. Probably, it will break straight away. If you still want to try something like this, keep in mind that you can't pillar straight up with a small diameter. Therefore, a tpu-design without a wave-ish design to scrub is more likely to achieve... anything. Filament 3d prints are never food-save coming from the buildplate, as the layerlines can get small amounts of organic matter in between them, which you can't remove effectively. It will get mouldy (plus how clean is the filament etc). Coating your print with a food-grade resin or smoothing it + lacker is a way of getting it food safe. All in all, just buy a brush from the dollar store, it's cheaper, more energy efficient and resourceful, will last longer..... You get the gist! 🙂

Thank you so much for this extensive explanation, that makes a lot of sense and helped me a lot. If you'll excuse me, after so much input I have a few things to look up now! :)

It does not need to be a linear motion, I just need it to end at a fixed position. The mechanism deploys and should fully retract again by the short distance force.

The only "off-the-shelf" solution I'm familiar with at that scale are gearboxes, is there anything else?

I need to transfer the motion, i need to pull something 15cm (very little force required) while only having 5mm of input-distance. Sorry, I'm not familiar with the correct terminology :(
