Riser. Filament Guide, Oiler Holder All in one for Maker Select Wanhao i3 v2

thingiverse

I had to lift up my spool holder for a couple of slightly larger spools, so I also needed a guide and oiler holder; therefore, I designed one in Tinkercad that could do all three things. Print Settings Printer: Maker Select (I3 V2) Rafts: No Supports: No Resolution: 0.1mm Infill: 20% Notes: On my Maker Select, I had Simplify3D set to 1.00 and 0.65mm; however, I increased the multiplier to 120% on the printer itself. It seemed like it needed it, maybe not. Either way, it came out fine. You could probably print at 200mic but it was only an extra 40 minutes at 100mic, and I prefer the nicer, cleaner look of higher resolution. I imagine it will work just as well at 200mic; after all, it's a simple part. Post-Printing If the oiler hole isn't large enough, it's just plastic. Use a pair of scissors to "ream" out the hole from both sides until it's the size you need. Don't forget to clean up the bolt holes if they require attention. If the bolts try to thread in like they did for me, simply tighten them down (on the plastic only) and strip them; then attach them to the printer. How I Designed This I designed this in Tinkercad by taking some measurements from the printer itself. The bracket is roughly 50x60mm; measure the width from outside bolt head to edge of bracket, remove 50% of bolt width to get center of hole, and do the same for side to side. Make holes a bit larger than you think you'll need (plastic expands a little). Added gussets for strength and aesthetics. Rounded top for smoothness and strength.
