Pellet drum (Den-den daiko)

prusaprinters

<p>This is a pellet drum that uses the core of a Prusament roll as the body and a flange of the roll as a jig for making the drum.<br/> Video of the drum in action can be found here:<br/> <a href="https://youtu.be/ji8pCOQYJvM">https://youtu.be/ji8pCOQYJvM</a><br/> PDF instructions for building the drum can be found here:<br/> <a href="https://drive.google.com/file/d/1DFvy5w2rshyR_WQDOHxuI4-2hVz6zq_d/view?usp=sharing">https://drive.google.com/file/d/1DFvy5w2rshyR_WQDOHxuI4-2hVz6zq_d/view?usp=sharing</a></p> <p>It is rather loud so be wary :D</p> <h3>Print instructions</h3><p>Files for printing on MK3S in PLA are included. The models are made to be printable easily even with 0.3 mm layer height. Tested printing with 0.3- and 0.15-mm layer height. Tolerances are looser with the lower layer height and tighter on the higher.</p> <p>Difference from standard Prusa settings are 3 perimeters and the dangly bits need 100% infill to be heavier and a brim to stay on the bed. The drill jig can use supports, but you can get away by just cutting the droopy layers with a knife afterwards (if you forget to add the supports, like I did on the first run).</p> <p>Face parts are probably best made with PLA for better sound, for other parts material choice does not matter that much.</p> <p>While all parts can be printed in one plater, I would suggest to print the handle parts separately for nicer finish and a safer print.</p>
