Printing Recommendations

Note

Total time spent printing is 24 hours per winding unit

Total filament used is approximately 300g per winder

  • These are general priting recommendations.
  • Remember that you know your printer better than I.

General Advice

  1. The following models will require support:
    • STRUCT_mid_plate
    • watch_mount
  2. The model is designed to be printed with PLA, therefore tolerances are spec'd for that
    • Tolerances are between 0.1 - 0.2mm
  3. Print with 25% infill
    • This will the increase overall rigidity of the model, especially when dealing with the motor's torque.
    • This will also give you a "premium feeling" product.
  4. If your printer has a tendency elephant foot, you'll need to file down some of the pieces.
    • For example, the mounting_dowel's outter lip will need to be filed down so the mounting_dowel_sleeve can easily slip over it.
