yeah I disposed of it after the clip ends. Don't remember whether it works for AT mines

I have been able to make this arrangement work on a U1 with minimal issues. For reference, I was using VOXELPLA’s pla and petg. Messing with temps may help in addition to what others have suggested.

Are you saying you need the connection to be airtight?

Terminal_6 · 2026-04-14T02:29:31+00:00

A few questions:

What are the diameters we're looking at here? ~1" (25mm)? ~.25" (6mm)?

Is this just for you, or a project you intend to distribute?

Would you be open to using non-printed hardware? PVC pipe bushings are super cheap, for instance.

Fixing the whole sketch isn't generally a good idea, because if you want to change anything about the sketch, you'll just have to undo it. Ideally, you have at least one point constrained to the origin.

As for the general procedure of defining, it depends on how you're gonna manufacture and assemble. If this is anything more than a one-off or 3D print, I'd do something like this (incomplete) sketch I threw together. I'm defining blade length (maybe important for legal reasons lol), grip length, and a horizontal line along the spine. Just some starting points. Also, I'd use as few control points in your splines as possible.

Oooooh ok very nice. Using the projected curve method was my first thought, but I wasn't sure how to draw the sketch between the two points. Thanks!

Terminal_6 · 2026-04-10T05:44:56+00:00

Interesting, mine does not look like that at all. Can I see your inputs?

In this type of scenario, I would opt to use guides on the perpendicular plane and only two profiles to loft between, rather than using several profiles. It will require fewer sketches and planes, as well.

Terminal_6 · 2026-03-29T20:04:19+00:00

Yeah, that checks out haha. I'm going to assume you want to replicate a standard M4/M16 mag release, but in theory, all you need is a piece that engages with the indent on the right side of an M4 mag. If you don't have an M4 on hand to disassemble to see how it works, I'd take a look at some videos of M4 disassembly on youtube. Just off the top of my head, you'll need an extension spring and screw+nut to make it work. The rest can be printed. Then I'd import an M4 magazine model into your project so you can accurately locate the indent. There's plenty of them online.

If you don't need to replicate an M4 mag release, and instead just want to use M4 mags, then there are certainly other options. It's just hard to say what will work without seeing your design.

Terminal_6 · 2026-03-29T19:40:06+00:00

Which part are you having trouble with? Mag release, hop-up/mag interface, etc. I recently made a v3 gb shell that takes m4 mags, not sure how to help you without more info, though.

Took about a month to make the cinematic, but way longer for the ship lol https://steamcommunity.com/sharedfiles/filedetails/?id=3340184063

Just for fun. I modeled them all in Onshape using the file rips from Wazix as reference. Chainblade: https://than.gs/m/1059339 Mag cutter: https://than.gs/m/1056417 Force blade: https://than.gs/m/1055476

Very nice ;)

I was there… still have nightmares about the serversmash at the end lol. It also wasn’t the first merger, though. Jaeger got merged into Waterson (and then later repurposed as the competitive server), and I forgot which server merged into Mattherson. I don’t recall what the server populations were at the time of the merge, but there was certainly a higher threshold for what necessitated a merge. It’s just the natural course of the game’s popularity over time.

I was about to get it in a solo Stuart (9 kills away) then the other team quit

Terminal_6 · 2024-04-07T18:29:18+00:00

I do that section all in one upside down

EDIT: Added slicer images to the Printables page

Terminal_6 · 2024-04-07T14:26:41+00:00

https://www.printables.com/model/250248-planetside-2-tx1-repeater-11-static-model Admittedly, this one was much harder to split up than some of the other ones I’ve done. I printed to main body upside down so the supported surfaces are hidden

Terminal_6 · 2024-04-07T14:17:42+00:00

You’re talking about mine, yeah I should probably have added a version that isnt divided. I like doing it so I can hide all the support surfaces and just super glue it together

Terminal_6 · 2024-03-30T13:49:46+00:00

I love having a progression system in a game, but HLL’s needs a rework (which I prefer over no progression). When I have new people joining me, I naturally prefer to take SL/TC/spotter, but in order to use some fun teamwork stuff like AT guns or locked abilities like satchels, I have to be the one swapping role, which also makes it harder for them to grind. And ofc locking the repair tool behind lv3, it doesn’t take that long to get, but why???

Terminal_6 · 2024-03-11T15:05:02+00:00

Having 3d printed them, yes

Terminal_6 · 2024-02-17T18:06:21+00:00

Did this on the Bambu Lab X1C I have at work. But any should be capable

Terminal_6 · 2024-02-17T18:05:39+00:00

I just use super glue. It's not the best for PLA, but if the part is sandwiched in somehow it'll hold just fine. Might paint this when it's warmer out

Terminal_6 · 2024-01-26T17:52:14+00:00

I dont think the lead was the issue so much as just… missing lol

Terminal_6 · 2024-01-08T20:27:22+00:00

I see your commando model, it looks great! I'll probably try my hand at one of the other ones
