Under heatbed filament drip tray

thingiverse

Tired of manually moving your 3D printer to remove filament drips under the heatbed? I know a thing or two about designing easy-to-use drip trays, thanks to Tinkercad. I created these simple and effective drip trays because there just wasn't anything available that fit the bill. The trays are 10mm or 15mm deep and take around three to four hours to print, depending on layer height and printing speed. Using a .2 layer height and 40mm per second print speed is a good starting point. There are three types of drip trays here. First up are the straight ones, measuring 180x150mm each. You'll need two of these, which you can simply slide onto either side of the heatbed. Then there's the shaped drip trays, which fit around the front brace of your printer. I designed this particular one using a design found on Thingiverse (http://www.thingiverse.com/thing:1430727). Lastly, there are the left-hand side drip trays, which were shortened to fit snugly around the cable chain. You can find that design on Thingiverse as well (http://www.thingiverse.com/thing:1874802).
