36W UV Curing Station - Opening Closure

prusaprinters

<p>This is a plate to close the opening on the common 36W UV nail curing lamps which are often used to cure resin prints as they are cheap (on eBay or <a href="https://www.amazon.com?linkCode=ll2&amp;tag=thingiverse09-20&amp;linkId=e4759bff1fa9a55a0f897d801ce2d765&amp;language=en_US&amp;ref_=as_li_ss_tl">Amazon</a>) and will operate continually rather than just on a short timer.</p> <p>The plate has a "hook" at the top which is pushed into the top of the opening, then it has two lugs which guide it into a roughly central position and hold it in place during use.</p> <p>It prints in two pieces - the main plate and a handle that makes it a lot easier to use. You can secure the handle using two small woodscrews.</p> <p>I've lined the inside with foil tape.</p> <p>I may eventually print one of the larger enclosure that can be used with this lamp, but I reckon this is a good start for curing miniatures conveniently and safely.</p> <h3>Print Settings</h3> <p><strong>Printer Brand:</strong></p> <p>Creality</p> <p class="detail-setting printer"><strong>Printer: </strong> <div><p>Ender 3</p></div> <p><strong>Rafts:</strong></p> <p>No</p> <p class="detail-setting supports"><strong>Supports: </strong> <div><p>No</p></div> <p><strong>Resolution:</strong></p> <p>0.2mm</p> <p class="detail-setting infill"><strong>Infill: </strong> <div><p>20%</p></div> <p><strong>Notes:</strong></p> <p>Designed to print supportless.</p> <h3>How I Designed This</h3> <p>This was designed in OnShape - it is public on there if you want to remix from my original CAD.</p> </p></p></p> Category: 3D Printer Accessories
