The Spray Cheese 3D Printer Conversion

thingiverse

This is my Prusa MK2 clone converted to dispense can cheese. The parts are designed to use the stock MK2 carriage. I've included the STL file in this project for reference only. To add more functionality, I also incorporated a manual endstop into this design. The slide piece is a highly altered version of the Snappy 3D printer slide design. Gcode and marlin code used are available below. I use a Nema 17 60mm motor to provide extra torque for dispensing can cheese. Here are the screws I'm using: * 4 M3x50mm * 2 M3x45mm * 3 M3x10mm * 10 M3 nuts For my can cheese, I used Easy Cheese Snack Sauce Cheddar, available on Amazon at https://www.amazon.com/Easy-Cheese-Snack-Sauce-Cheddar/dp/B000S5MDWA/ref=sr_1_10?keywords=easy+cheese&qid=1565819682&s=gateway&sr=8-10. For crackers, I used Ritz Original Crackers Stacks Family, available on Amazon at https://www.amazon.com/Ritz-Original-Crackers-Stacks-Family/dp/B071R1YJ7G/ref=sr_1_3?fpw=pantry&keywords=ritz+crackers&qid=1565819711&s=pantry&sr=8-3. Here are the Gcode and Marlin code files I used for this project: * Gcode: https://drive.google.com/open?id=1M4vOF9zv3hIWds9KWT-GtXJUym_m-1Ux * Marlin code: https://drive.google.com/open?id=1lXU18mgb02vMIVRqJkd6Lo7UTrzBFj0D You can also check out my cheese printer video on YouTube at https://youtu.be/qPo-uy0bUdo.
