7X14 Mini Lathe Apron gear cover

thingiverse

Remixed the 7X14 mini lathe apron gear cover. My lathe needed the following modifications Extended about 2MM towards the lead screw lock nut to completely cover the back of the apron. Removed the Raised round section my gear is flush with the inside of the apron. Added 3mm high by 4mm thick raised edge to make space for Moly grease. Top section is 2.5mm to make sure the gear has clearance. Relocated the pinion gear hole and added a flange to ride on the gear assembly for support. Removed the bolt holes as my lathe came with a aluminum casting for the apron and it is only 3 to 4mm thick. Flipped 180 to print with no support Printed in Cura with concentric top and bottom layers, .4 nozzle on fine settings with 4 wall and top/bottom layers for rigidity. Added second mod file without the pinion flange and larger hole.
