Lava Lamp Lid

prusaprinters

<p>Jim, a friend at work, came in with a broken lid to his Lava Lamp and asked if I could make a replacement. I love to use my Printrbot to make replacement parts for things, so I gave it a try. This worked for him and maybe someone else will need one someday.</p> <h3>Print Settings</h3> <p><strong>Printer Brand:</strong></p> <p>Printrbot</p> <p class="detail-setting printer"><strong>Printer: </strong> <div><p>Play</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>.2</p> <p class="detail-setting infill"><strong>Infill: </strong> <div><p>15%</p></div> <p><strong>Notes:</strong></p> <p>I used red Maker Geeks PET+ since this might get a bit warm and PET+ is much more heat resistant than PLA. Printed with 4 top and bottom layers, 2 shells, 245C temp.</p> <h3>Post-Printing</h3> <p>The Maker Geeks red PET+ looks like a translucent watermelon pink when printed. Not the look Jim was going for. He sanded, primed and painted the top with some rattle-can semi flat black paint. He reports no issues with heat affecting the lid so far.</p> </p></p></p> Category: Replacement Parts
