Trinus Heated Build Plate Cable Helper

thingiverse

The Kodama Trinus is a true gem in the world of 3D printing - its compact design and impressive features make it a standout model. However, one major flaw holds it back from truly excelling: the cable connecting its heated build plate. In reality, this issue stems from the lack of stress relief designed into the cable for its heated build plate. This tiny weakness can be easily addressed with a simple solution - a stress relief sleeve. Simply place it on the build plate end of the troublesome cable, secure it to the build plate using one small zip tie, and then attach the other end of the sleeve to the cable itself with another small zip tie. Problem solved! Many 3D printers struggle with producing intricate details when printing small items like this one. To achieve the best possible results, I recommend printing multiple copies - three or four should do the trick - and spacing them out on your printer's build plate. This allows each layer to cool thoroughly before the next one starts printing, ensuring a smoother finish. Alternatively, you could adjust your slicer's minimum layer time to an extended period, but this wouldn't provide you with spare parts when they're inevitably needed. Printing multiple copies is the way to go for optimal results. **Print Settings** To achieve exceptional results, print the stress relief sleeve on its side, rather than laying it down flat. Adding support material can also help with retaining fine details in your prints.
