Moineau Paste Extruder Nema17 Stepper ZeroSurface cleanup

thingiverse

Reviewing the Moineau Paste Extruder design Unverified by me using Nema17 tepper ( would consider a remote type modification) My display showed a bunch of 'Zero thick Surfaces', which animated a little code cleanup... What I did: - wherever I saw a hazy membrane (zero surface results from adding and substracting material to the same plane) I eliminated it - changed head recesses to hex (still needs parametric size consciously adjusted) - created that exploded view assembly (it might be possible to split the stl in a slicer or manually render and export all the parts by going into the present // code statements create a _toPrintAssy) I still don't understand the things I saw in the code about sealing the stepper properly against any moisture or paste that might get up there accidentally - need to question the original designer about it, or do my own tests ! As I said I would really like a remote shaft setup, because Nema 17 steppers are quite heavy... To be continued... (by you? please consider open source and share!)
