DON'T STEAL THIS BY SELLING IT ON EBAY !! FIRST ASK ME !!\r\n\r\nCAUTION !!\r\nLeafs printed from PLA failed over time and broke !!\r\nI designed new, stronger ones to see if they will hold up.\r\nNew design is stiffer and stronger, but multi-leaf designs are not good for PLA, so it's better to try them in PTEG.\r\n\r\nWatch the movie on how to assemble this here:\r\nhttps://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Q62tlbogFJM\r\n\r\nUpdate: 28.08.2019\r\nI think this will be the last update.\r\nWhile I was upgrading my Fayee FY004A, I wanted to upgrade my design.\r\nOld designs had rough edges and leafs made of two parts combined with incorrect dimensions.\r\nI redesigned leafs using high-resolution parts, making them perfect for 0.4mm nozzles :)\r\nI also reinforced eyes a bit to protect them from breaking off.\r\nFind and modify this design here:\r\nhttps://www.tinkercad.com/users/ijdXrBIYp5t-adrian202gt\r\n\r\nUpdate: 02.08.2018\r\nAs requested, I closed the hole on mounts to prevent slipping from rails, making it version v4.\r\nI still need to check if the hole is not too long but it should be fine :)\r\nIf someone prints this before me, please confirm that.\r\nPeople have printed it from PTEG and say it works better than PLA; I just haven't tried printing it in PTEG yet so I don't know how it will turn out :D\r\n\r\nUpdate: 09.07.2018\r\n- I removed the pin from collection because I don't think it would work.\r\n- I uploaded version v3 of mounts and arms with 1.8mm holes, and v2 has 2mm holes; depending on your printer, the holes will be bigger or smaller, so it's better to print v3 and drill them out with CCW rotation and a 2mm drill.\r\nI don't know if the screw will break the part when you try to screw it in on v3 version, but you'll have a choice.\r\n\r\nUpdate 03:06.2018\r\n- I modified mounts so now you can use WPL screws to mount them and added some material to arms so they won't break easily.\r\n- I also designed a prototype pin and will try using it instead of M2 screws.\r\n\r\nIf you don't have a printer and want to buy my designed parts, contact these people:\r\nDanielle from Australia - dc-3d@outlook.com\r\nStef from United Kingdom - stefygoodman@live.co.uk\r\nJay from United States - jaymillz3d@gmail.com\r\nHenryk from Germany (only in PTEG) - Henryk.stenzel@gmx.net\r\n(If you want your email to be here, just write to me)\r\nParts are designed to be easy to print and assemble :)\r\nIf you want to print anything else, ask them :)\r\n\r\nSomeone tested this design and liked it but I still don't have time to play with it; however, I will put this in my new B24 :)\r\n\r\nI uploaded parts here:\r\nhttps://www.tinkercad.com/users/ijdXrBIYp5t-adrian202gt\r\nRight now, I'm testing this design to see how it works.\r\nThe tilting mechanism works fine; you can adjust the flex by adding or removing leafs.\r\nIt needs M2 12mm screws and some nuts but I need to test that too.\r\nI uploaded a preview so anyone can see how it's assembled :)\r\nI'm still working on it, but in this moment, it works for me\r\nI printed this in PLA at half speed with 0.2mm layers\r\nIf you want, you can print this and test it.\r\nThe print is fast (46 minutes at half speed) and doesn't take much material because it's smaller than the original and leafs have only two walls.\r\nI will upload any changed files and write what I changed and started to put version numbers so anyone will know if I changed something\r\nI always post updates on Facebook groups:\r\nhttps://web.facebook.com/groups/1775918592710859/\r\nhttps://web.facebook.com/groups/1568692219864380/\r\nIf you got any suggestions, write to me here or on Facebook:\r\nhttps://web.facebook.com/Adrian202RC
