Printer Bed Scraper for Replaceable Printed Blades (Two-piece handle version)

prusaprinters

<p>I liked the concept of this design but found support removal impossible. To eliminate the necessity for supports I cut the handle in half.</p> <p>The files are large to ensure accuracy and the top half of the handle needs to be flipped over to print correctly. I may refine the design, time permitting.</p> <p>UPDATE: Tool works well. I feel obligated to improve on my alterations. Recommended, thanks for the original design!</p> <p>NEXT UPDATE: I've since moved on to a more traditional bed scraper. I recommend a 10"/27cm frosting/cake decorating spatula with an offset handle, something like <a href="https://www.ebay.com/itm/Stainless-Steel-Cake-Spatula-Butter-Cream-Icing-Frosting-Knife-ND/163843802805?var=463407654503&amp;hash=item2625da06b5:m:mPeFk3KE8DrgIfQxlLFTlVQ">this one</a>.</p> <h3>Print Settings</h3> <p><strong>Printer:</strong></p> <p>Anet A8</p> <p class="detail-setting rafts"><strong>Rafts: </strong> <div><p>No</p></div> <p><strong>Supports:</strong></p> <p>No</p> <p class="detail-setting resolution"><strong>Resolution: </strong> <div><p>0.2mm</p></div> <p><strong>Infill:</strong></p> <p>20%</p> <p><br/> <p class="detail-setting notes"><strong>Notes: </strong></p> </p><div><p>0.4mm nozzle, three top/bottom and three perimeters, 60mm/sec, 205c hotend, 45c bed.</p> Print time: <p>45mins</p> <p>Filament:</p> <p>LESHP brand blue PLA @ $15.60/kg</p> <p>4379.4mm</p> <p>13.17g (0.03lb)</p> <p>$0.38 cost.</p> <h3>Post-Printing</h3> <p>Glue both halves together, I used CA.</p> <h3>How I Designed This</h3> <p>Used Meshmixer's plane cut feature.</p> </div></p></p> Category: 3D Printer Accessories
