<p>This is a followup to:<br/> Lack Attack#1: Stacking the Lack: <a href="https://www.prusaprinters.org/prints/15917-lack-attack-1-stack-the-lack-aka-the-lack-stack-ad">https://www.prusaprinters.org/prints/15917-lack-attack-1-stack-the-lack-aka-the-lack-stack-ad</a><br/> without further adieu....</p> <p>Attack 2: STACK THE LACK</p> <p>NOTE: SAVE THE SPARE LEGS! If your following this build, you need them for LACK ATTACK #4.</p> <p>Once I had a 4 Lack Stack with one Lack without Legs on the bottom as a base sitting in my living room I wanted a way to move it easily once it was complete. I knew it would need to move to clean/make room when company comes over (I like to print/work in the living room so I can watch the kids as well) so I also picked up a set of RILL casters at ikea (Article Number : 966.713.00) they were in the discount bin as the bag was ripped, $6, can't beat that...</p> <p>I didn't see anything similar, so based on the Lack Stack adapter I knocked out a quick caster adapter for the bottom corners that would also serve as a corner protector for the legs as they tend to collect dings easily.</p> <p>I built these to install 2 ways, I first used them with the posts which will press into the tables screw holes, this was intended to align them, see how they fit, and if they needed modification before I screwed them in place. It worked well for the first couple days and was surprisingly stable, but then one post broke so I screwed them down and into place. I'd skip the posts if I printed these again and go straight to #6x1" screws</p> <p>As always, comments are greatly appreciated, in this case direction and pitfalls to watch for are also appreciated, If you've been here done this and have a better way please let me know.</p> <p>Next:<br/> Attack 3: Power the Lack Stack...<br/> <a href="https://www.prusaprinters.org/prints/15919-lack-attack-3-koppla-the-lack-aka-power-the-lack-s">https://www.prusaprinters.org/prints/15919-lack-attack-3-koppla-the-lack-aka-power-the-lack-s</a></p> <h3>Print instructions</h3><h3>Category: 3D Printer Accessories Print Settings</h3> <p><strong>Printer Brand:</strong> Prusa</p> <p><strong>Printer:</strong> <a href="http://amzn.to/2DxjZlB">i3 MK2S</a></p> <p><strong>Rafts:</strong> No</p> <p><strong>Supports:</strong> No</p> <p><strong>Resolution:</strong> .35mm</p> <p><strong>Infill:</strong> 0%</p> <p><strong>Notes:</strong></p> <p>Printed in white NGEN, 240C nozzle, 85C bed.<br/> I printed these as oriented in the STL on edge.<br/> The walls are fairly thin, and infilling can cause surface bumps.<br/> I increased the wall count to 3 to strethen up the one corner and stop any attempts to infill or void on the walls.</p> <h3> Post-Printing</h3> <p><strong>Build &amp; Assembly Notes:</strong></p> <p>Print it x4, pop it off,<br/> slide the casters into the cutouts,<br/> pop the posts into the holes (if you decide to go that route),<br/> press them into the holes on the bottom of the table used as a base,<br/> and stack....<br/> If your happy with how they look, predrill and add at least 2 screws per caster, 4 optimally.<br/> Not much harder than that....</p> <p><strong>Revisioning:</strong></p> <p>v1.0 - initial release.</p> <h3> How I Designed This</h3>
