compact-extruder no room for drive gear #26

Closed misan closed 11 years ago

misan commented 11 years ago

While the previous compact-extruder for PG35L motor had enough room for a MK7 (or similar) drive gear, this new one does not.

I am using something similar to this motor and drive gear: http://trinitylabs.com/products/50-1-all-metal-gearhead-stepper-147oz-in and the drive gear does not fit. Maybe I should use another one, but just in case I am opening this issue.

Older version had a radius of 8mm, now it is 6.5mm only. I guess getting back to that 8mm will cure the problem.

At line 45 of compact-extruder.scad translate([0,-2,-1]) cylinder(r=6.5, h=26);

I would change it to: translate([0,-2,-1]) cylinder(r=8, h=26);

Models from single_plate are now maintained in https://github.com/josefprusa/Prusa3-vanilla - we have wade as extruder here. It the problem is still present, please open issue in Prusa3-vanilla repo.
