Provide basic stl files for 8mm #5

Closed noeldum closed 3 years ago

noeldum commented 3 years ago

Great project. It would be nice to provide some stl file for the basic setup in 8mm. That would make your project more accessible to all of us.

Opening openscad for the first time in my life and would prefer just printing it for testing before spending time to learn openscad.

Managed to get all parts in one stl but struggling to split them into several individual stl files.

Hi @noeldum

Great project.

Thanks.

I don't think that'll work. You really need to adjust the play etc. for your printer/filament. That adjustment is the price you need to pay for it to work without using screws etc.

before spending time to learn openscad.

You don't really need to know OpenSCAD. You just set the parameters in the Customizer. Watch the video.

You can enable individual parts there.

Sorry for the short answer, gotta go now.

The essential tuning is described here: https://youtu.be/cNCjjvCT4Fc?t=78

I'll close this issue for now. If I'm missing the point here, why I should still provide STL files, we can re-open it.
