Chair Slider Foot

prusaprinters

<p>One of our dining room chairs was missing slider feet on its legs. We have tried many commercial sliders, both stick on and nail on with no success.</p> <p>Today I did a simple design in OpenSCAD. I matched the dimensions of the sliders on the other chairs so all chairs sit at the same height.</p> <p>I printed the sliders in red ABS and attached with small tack nails. They slide great!</p> <h3>Print Settings</h3> <p><strong>Printer Brand:</strong></p> <p>LulzBot</p> <p class="detail-setting printer"><strong>Printer: </strong> <div><p>TAZ 5</p></div> <p><strong>Rafts:</strong></p> <p>No</p> <p class="detail-setting supports"><strong>Supports: </strong> <div><p>No</p></div> <p><strong>Resolution:</strong></p> <p>0.2</p> <p class="detail-setting infill"><strong>Infill: </strong> <div><p>100%</p></div> <p><strong>Notes:</strong></p> <p>Use whatever printing temps give you a really solid strong part in your favorite material. Strength is important, since these have a lot of stress on them when someone sits in the chair.</p> <h3>How I Designed This</h3> <p><strong>Designed in OpenSCAD based on dimensions of original slider part</strong></p> <div><p>I used OpenSCAD to design the part. The source code is included, if you need a part which is similar but with slightly different dimensions. Just change the parameter variables at the top of the file, re-render and export the STL. Good luck!</p></div> </p></p></p> Category: Replacement Parts
