prusaprinters

<p>Cut larger rods, bars and bolts more accurately with this tool. It should fit a variety of small angle grinders.</p> <p>You will have to position the angle grinder hinged bracket and the job holder to suit your setup. I used a 250 x 250mm scrap board as the base.</p> <p><strong>All power tools can cause harm. Do not use if not already comfortable and familiar with angle grinders. All the usual safety measures apply.</strong></p> <h3> Print Settings</h3> <p><strong>Printer Brand:</strong></p> <p>Prusa</p> <p><p class="detail-setting printer"><strong>Printer: </strong> <div><p>i3 MK3 MMU 2</p></div><strong>Rafts:</strong></p> <p>No</p> <p><p class="detail-setting supports"><strong>Supports: </strong> <div><p>No</p></div><strong>Resolution:</strong></p> <p>200</p> <p><p class="detail-setting infill"><strong>Infill: </strong> <div><p>20</p></div><br/> <strong>Filament:</strong><br/> [</p> <h3> Any PLA and PETG or ABS ](http://www.amazon.com/s?url=search-alias&amp;field-keywords=Any+PLA+and+PETG+or+ABS&amp;tag=thingiverse09-20) Any <br/> <p class="detail-setting notes"><strong>Notes: </strong> </p><div><p>PLA should be sufficient for the grinder base and cradle.
