Build Plate Reset Reminder

prusaprinters

<p>When I switch my build plate from smooth to textured (or vice versa), I sometimes forget to reset the plate type on the printer. I made this little tag which clips onto the build plate not currently in use, so that when I replace the build plate I will have to remove the tag first and hopefully remind myself to reset the printer.</p> <p>The tag is designed as a one piece clip which simply slips onto the build plate.</p> <p>The OnShape 3d CAD files for this is located here:</p> <p><a href="https://cad.onshape.com/documents/a4202aca05eeaaece208ddc8/w/d70528498c84a1b44ecc9419/e/326e2d5f17523f131771c267">https://cad.onshape.com/documents/a4202aca05eeaaece208ddc8/w/d70528498c84a1b44ecc9419/e/326e2d5f17523f131771c267</a></p> <h3>Print instructions</h3><p>Print in PLA using the provided 3mf file; otherwise:</p> <ul> <li>0% infill</li> <li>no supports</li> <li>no brim</li> <li>bottom fill pattern = concentric</li> </ul> <p>The provided 3mf file is configured for two color printing with filament switching. Two color printing is not required, but it does make the text more legible.</p> <p>The [art does not stick reliably to the build plate without a brim, but using the slicer brim function adds a brim to the inside bottom abd that is annoying to remove. So in order for the part to print the way I wanted, I designed it with a built in brim which can be removed more easily after printing.</p> <p>The print also include built in supports on the inside of the clip. The need to be broken away after printing - easy enough to do do by sliding a thin blade into the clip (I used a razor knife).</p>
