Dial Indicator Mount For Replicator

thingiverse

Spin your dial indicator mount for replicator to easily tram and jog alongside the extruder without moving your finger. For optimal print quality, use a sideways position with 10% infill and 1-3 extra walls. Post-printing, it should securely snap onto rails while remaining easy to slide. Attach it to the extruder fan standoff for precise jogging. If required, file adjustments for a perfect fit. To ensure accurate leveling, check above each of the four springs. Avoid teeter-totter leveling confusion and be aware of plate warping and temperature changes affecting plastic support arms. For best results, level the plate after warming up. Be cautious with the original clips; apply glue if needed to prevent breakage. An updated version with stronger clips and a 0.5mm wider opening is available for download. Print with attention to fine detail at slow speeds. Layer height should be between 0.22 and 0.25mm, with a feed rate of no more than 60 (with acceleration) or 30 (without). To maintain the clips' integrity, apply glue around their base before they break on new prints. Attached photo shows improved clip design with a break-away support structure.
