The Turbine - 74mm Toothless Herb Grinder

thingiverse

Inspired by http://www.thingiverse.com/thing:2107631, a 4-part toothless herb grinder with catchment tray is designed by guerillacaterpillar. This innovative design includes several alternative versions of each part to suit different needs. The Knurled version features intricate details that require the longest print time. The Top and Housing pieces take approximately six hours each at a 0.1mm layer height, while the rifling may pose challenges for some 3D printers. In contrast, the Plain version boasts smooth outside surfaces, allowing for fast print times. This design strikes a balance between speed and functionality. The Rifled option falls midway in terms of time between Knurled and Plain, offering a compromise between detail and efficiency. Additional grinding plates with varying hole sizes (5, 6, and 7mm) are included, featuring flaring and non-flaring designs to facilitate herb movement. Print Settings: - Printer: DaVinci 1.0 - Rafts: Doesn't Matter - Supports: Doesn't Matter - Resolution: 0.1mm to 0.3mm - Infill: Variable Notes on Print Settings: Layer Height and Print Speed: The Knurled parts should be printed at 0.1mm layer height, likely with a lower print speed depending on the printer model. Density: The Top and Grinding Plate should be printed at medium density (20%) with thick walls to ensure stability. The Tray and Housing can be printed at low density (5-10%). Rafts and Supports: Depending on the printer's specifications, it may be necessary to use rafts and supports when printing the Housing due to its small contact area and overhanging tabs that support the grinding plate.
