Flux 3D Delta Spool Ball Bearing

thingiverse

This is an updated version of the MoFluxband designed by anandydy529. This version has smoother edges, featuring more circle slices, and uses 1/4 inch balls instead of 6mm balls. I found the 1/4 inch balls easier to obtain than metric ones; in my case, I simply purchased some slingshot pellets from a hunting store. Using this bearing underneath the filament spool significantly reduces drag and ensures a print with fewer flaws. Please note that due to the height of this bearing, do not close the filament spool compartment while using the bearing; it will only cause the filament spool to drag against the roof instead. The ball bearing adds a little more noise to the print but does not become annoyingly so. Important: This print pushes the Flux 3D printer to its limits. To print, you must turn off support and raft, use high-quality printing settings, and also go to Advanced -> Expert and change the skirt distance from 10 to 2mm. To achieve the best quality print, it is crucial that the first layer is laid down correctly. If you notice that part of the surrounding circle-laid-down-by-the-printer has flaws in them, stop the print, clean it up, reapply glue to ensure everything sticks correctly, and then try another print.

Simply add filament spool and you are ready to print.
