High Feets for CTC Replicator Flashforge

thingiverse

Especially recommendable when additional fans are installed or a fan modification was made. Hi folks! Another upgrade item for your Replicator-like 3D printer. These are high feet for the lower corners of your 3D printer. It's a remix of the basic version. ... better printable threads with less overhang. ... thicker walls, so they make a tight fit without breaking while installing. ... higher than the original for (silent) fan upgrade (which need a higher printer in general). See the picture above looking underneath the printer. The 4 additional fans need space to breathe. The feet raise your printer by 20mm, for fan mods with fans up to 25mm (1 inch) thick. ... optional printable bumper for the screw (flexible filament needed, e.g., TPU). I'm thinking about making another bumper for the high feet. Let me know if you need some! ... I recommend installing soft bumpers (like fabric) on the bottom of the high feet and on the screw (if you have no flexible filaments), to reduce the translation of shaking to the table/cupboard. I strongly recommend printing just one of these screwable feet and making the other 3 feet static, like in the "feet_set_recommended.stl" file. Because of simple math, 3 feet define a plane, the 4th foot is the "bad one" which is causing the wobbling/tilt of the whole printer. So only one needs to be adjustable. I recommend installing the screwable feet at the front, not like me on the back, because most of the weight is on the back, so adjustments are easier when installed on the front. But it's up to you, if you want to print 4 screwable feet then "just do it." ;) Have fun. If your screwable foot is too tight add some PTFE/Teflon lubrication OR resize the x- and y-axis of the screwable foot in your Slicer Software. Try something like 99% or 98%. Do not rescale the z-axis (height)! The screwable foot is a tight fit with ~0.3mm space between outer and inner thread.
