Wanhao D7 Easy Level Build Platform with Resin Drain

thingiverse

A while back another user shared a simple build platform based on this one. Unfortunately, the original design is no longer available on Thingiverse, so I'm unable to give credit to its creator, although I would if it were possible. This platform draws heavily from that original version but has been modified to fit v1.5 machines, as well as earlier models. There are two versions of the lower section: one for the original build plate and another for the v1.5 build plate. The design incorporates bevels to make it easier for resin to flow off the top, and the center has been expanded to increase the volume of resin that can be used in the vat. To assemble this platform, you will need: One M10x40 bolt One M5x80 bolt One M10 nut One M5 nut On April 30th, I updated the knobs and top to make them more compatible with v1.5 machines. The main reason for this update was to keep my fingers out of the resin when tightening the tensioner knob. The requirements have changed: Top version three is designed specifically for pre-1.5 machines only. Top version four is designed specifically for v1.5 machines only. To assemble top version three, replace the M10x40 bolt with an M10x25 bolt. To assemble top version four, replace the M10 nut with an M10x4mm nut. These nuts can be found on AliExpress and have an M10 thread but are only 4mm thick and 14mm wide.
