Locked Indicator holder - 3d printed
Due to the suggestion on here to get a 3d printer I went ahead and got one last week.? One of the first parts I made was a much needed dial indicator holder for the mini lathe.? I had been putting off making one of metal but I don't mind using up some plastic for testing it out. I found the cad drawings online for the body then made up the knob to tighten it down.? I'm using a metal screw and nut to hold it in place. I'm amazed at what these 3d printers can do along with the excellent free software available to design and print.?? I may make up a few of these holders if folks are interested in one.? I'd just ask for $5 to cover shipping and the small cost in materials. I need to make a few tweaks still.? These would be made in PLA and may not last forever but then again the price is low ? See ya. |

Here is a 3D printed part being finished?on my HF Mini Lathe.? ?My printer seems to make round parts with about 0.1 mm out-of-round.? ?This is a PLA part for a robot-dog shoulder that will have a couple 27x20x4 mm ball bearing pressed in.? ?After?printing you can machine the?plastic?at low speed and get really good results.? This fixes the problem of low precision printers. This part looks like a casting in metal but is made of? $1.80 worth of PLA plastic.? It is very strong for its intended use and only weights about 65 grams. On Wed, Jan 19, 2022 at 7:27 PM Chad Rebuck <chadrebuck@...> wrote:

I must have mistakenly signed on to a group I don¡¯t belong to. I thought this was the 7x12 minilathe group. |
This is the 7x12 group. I didn't think it was active anymore.?
