Base Kossel Hexagonal heat bed with 19 mm glass

thingiverse

I'm using my Kossel Mini with a heat bed to print ABS parts. After trying to create a part that uses FSR's, I realized I risked losing my heat bed, so I decided to remove the FSR and recreate it according to my measurements. If you have a similar setup (hexagonal aluminum heat bed and 19 mm glass), give it a try. This remake of the Kossel FSR Support Corner for 190 mm Glass is an updated version of the one I created before. I've updated the file so that it's close enough to avoid moving my heat bed. To level the bed, I'm using some coil and screws. Unfortunately, I couldn't find the link to this method... Print Settings: Printer Brand: Up! Printer: Up Plus 2 Rafts: No Supports: No Resolution: 0.2 Infill: Solid Notes: Print with ABS to resist temperature fluctuations. To fit my print area, I rotate it 45 degrees and print upright. No support is needed for this design. The updated file is significantly better than the original. How I Designed This: I used SketchUp to design it... First, I imported the lower corner from Thingiverse, drew a triangle, found the center of the bed, and drew my 19 mm glass. Then, I started creating the structure to hold the heat bed with some space for the weld that connects the wires. After the first try, the connectors shorted out, so I raised it slightly and cleaned up the weld by changing the wire direction to point towards the center of the plate. I used silicone wire this time around.
