Printer Bed Scraper with Replaceable Printed Blades

cults3d

This is a spatula for removing objects from the print bed, with easily replaceable printable blades that come in handy when one side of the blade gets worn out and needs to be turned over. And the best thing about it is that it won't damage your print bed. The four types of blades are: Soft - ideal for general use, Hard - for stubborn objects, Combo having one soft and one hard side, and Extra-Hard or "XHard" for extra-tough jobs. For better performance, make sure the blade label is turned downwards. The blades can be printed in either material and it's advisable to use a blade of the same material as the object being removed. UPDATE 2018-02-11: Extra-Hard (XHard) blades have been added and GCODE files for blades have been removed. UPDATE 2017-09-26: The NEW Scraper Handle v2 has closed sides that keep the blade firmly in place, preventing it from sliding out sideways. It also doesn't require supports anymore, but you should enable bridging parameters detection. If a single-piece print doesn't work for you, a split v2 version is included. Important: To ensure a proper slit size, you should first calibrate the extrusion using this model https://www.thingiverse.com/thing:2372705. UPDATE 2017-09-04: A 2-part split version of the Printer Bed Handle has been added to help users who have experienced troubles removing supports from the slit. Glue after printing. A minor error in the STL file has also been fixed, which does not affect already enclosed GCODE files. Feel free to tip me if you like this!
