No problem, Cura also has a preview function, after slicing you can watch the extruder follow the path, layer by layers Sorta boring, but can show an issue if something doesn’t print properly, you can see if it’s the file or the printer screwing up.


Hang up and Drive

What capacity is the card? My printers, an ender 3pro and a qidi x-one l-2 do not like cards bigger than 32 gigs.

Cool! I wonder if any of you have already printed the entire body on a 3D printer? I think a PLA case would be strong enough.

You must not browse the forums much lol.

I'm just finishing a build that the body, everything on it as well as skid plates and such are all 3d printed. FYI not all PLA is the same. Some is strong enough some is not. No version pla thays dark colored deals with being in the sun during the summer though.

Here's the project I have going, well finishing up now. First attempt at something this big. Have more planned now.

Saw something like this a long time ago and can't find it anymore. These are for Traxxas 4962 big bore shocks I use on an Axial Wraith. Tired of losing spring retainers so copied the idea and created these locking spring retainers. Uses a 2mm screw and nut to clamp to the rod end. Even if the spring retainer pops off the rod end, the screw keeps it from falling off the shock shaft.

Haven't designed any for other shocks yet but editing a few dimensions should make it easy to adapt the design to most shocks.
