Get (/print) a plastic spatula to aid in removing prints #51

Closed amcewen closed 8 years ago

Lots of the parts will come nicely off the Ultimakers if you heat the bed up to ~44 deg C, but some don't.

Rather than use the metal scraper, which might scratch the glass, it would be handy if we had a plastic (or wooden maybe) spatula sort of thing to use to scrape things off

I have still ended up needing the metal scraper for the odd wrist cap - everything else tends to come off okay, but they're a bit too wide and flat to gain any leverage on it. So maybe one of those and careful instruction to avoid scratches is best?

Metal scraper seems to work best, alongside the Thwack hammer
