Box Mod bottom feeder mechanical with push button lock (v3)

thingiverse

This is an evolution of the original design. You can view a detailed photo tutorial at http://www.esigblog.com/box-mod-bottom-feeder-mini-meccanica-foto-tutorial/. Some users have requested a version that does not use keystones or other types of contact, instead opting for strips made from copper, brass, or silver. This design meets their requirements. The dimensions are 77x42x24 mm. A suggested layer height is 0.10 mm (100 micron) for push buttons A & B, and 0.15 mm (150 micron) for the body and front panel. The body and front panel come in two versions: one with a drip cap hole of 10 or 12 mm, and another with a large hole for a fatdaddy 22x1 mm drip cap. In the render, the red body is the fatdaddy version, while the other is the standard one. For the strips, you can use http://fave.co/2crgoGr or http://fave.co/2cri1DS. To complete this design, you will need a drip cap (such as MAVV4 from svapamo), 12x magnets of 3x1 mm (http://fave.co/2czxo0r), and a 6 or 8.5 round (18 mm) bottle with tube. Update: On September 9, 2016, I added battle_spacer.stp, an optional file that allows you to print the bottle near the squonk hole of the front panel. On December 12, 2016, I added fatdaddy_positive_pin_blocker.stl, which is required for use with the Fat Daddy bottom feeder cap v5.
