printrbot simple mods 3d models

I'm still awaiting my E3D V6, but it's en route to me now. As soon as I get it, I plan on giving the bowden setup a try. Unfortunately, every mount design that I found includes the tube connector built directly into it. Since that wouldn't work with...

After attempting to assemble the threads, it became apparent that they were not a good fit; however, a bit of sanding and application of glue resolved this issue, resulting in a smooth assembly.

They possess a comprehensive toolkit including precision instruments like screwdrivers, wooden handled wrenches, and fine-tipped tools like vernier calipers, all-purpose wrenches and tweezers - what's required now is the creation of two strategically...

To increase Z-axis travel by 47mm, spend $5 on extra parts. First, obtain a 36" 8mm polished rod (McMaster 88625K67). Keep extras for other projects. Next, gather tools like a calibrated printer, 6.5mm drill, Allen wrench, hacksaw or die-grinder, and...

I craved an equivalent to the authentic "Finger Flobber" yet devoid of any screw-tightening necessity. ...The result effortlessly glides into place with no fiddling required.

The device effectively separates the vibrations caused by printing from your desk, resulting in significantly reduced noise levels during the process.

This assembly combines components from three Thingiverse models: http://www.thingiverse.com/thing:274200, http://www.thingiverse.com/thing:302435, and http://www.thingiverse.com/thing:308565. You can also find it posted individually at...

The device facilitates passage of the filament between the direct drive extruder motor and the hot end, featuring a slanted central hole for smooth operation.

I'm totally stoked about combining two of my favorite things - 3D printing and cars. It's only logical that I'd want to merge them into one awesome project! So, I decided to take a 3D printer and give it an air intake makeover. ...I designed an adapter...

I 3D printed mine using flexible plastic filament from a Makerbot.

I remixed a customized version of Thingiverse's 387313, transforming it from a functional handle into an innovative filament holder. To achieve this transformation, I reversed the direction of the filament arm, leveraging its raised edge to create a...

Reduces disruptions, shields printers, and clears desks - a perfectly quiet workplace.\nProtecting equipment just got easier.\nThis design can be produced on most desktop machines including those made by Ultimaker using the advanced features of Flex...

The customer requested a spacer to fit between the filament spool and the printer arm, as the latter often became lodged in the former.

Based on the incredible designs by @iamjonlawrence. I redefined his concepts in Autodesk Fusion 360 to mold my own components that perfectly fit a custom bed laser cut from 1/4" MDF, matching my precise 8x8 heated bed with surgical accuracy. This...

When employing plastic spools approximately 7 centimeters in width, I utilize this shim alongside stock bearings and longer 6-32 screws. This customization is based on a model found at http://www.thingiverse.com/thing:236490, which can be...

Operators can install an 8 mm brass flange nut into place after first downsizing the flange for proper clearance fitment. I wish I hadn't parted with that lathe, but that's not relevant here - what matters is the fact that in this instance the flange...

I combined the lower and mid hulls to print as a single piece, adding screw holes for hatch latches along the way. A gasket was designed to seal the gap between the boat and hatch, keeping water at bay while allowing for easy removal of the hatch.

This mod involves raising the bed by 3mm, increasing PB-Y bar mount width for better rod grip, and making belt clip base thicker for proper alignment. All files are configured for ABS plastic, and Gcode is centered for both 6 inch and 8 inch...

This text is a modification of http://www.thingiverse.com/thing:190238, made printable on the 100mm x 100mm x 100mm bed of a Simple 3D printer. Extra hardware needed includes 6 M3 hex nuts, 6 M3 7-10mm screws, and 4 4" zip ties (super glue optional)....

In testing, it works really well, and also minimizes overall filament tension by pulling from the spool more orthogonal to the spin moment and normal force. There are a few other touches like inverted cone over z-rod to allow it to pivot more...

There are a few other touches like an inverted cone over z-rod allowing for smoother pivoting, yet keeping as simple and minimalistic design as possible. A demonstration of retract flex is available here: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=JVb58lKCKzM. ...A...

The given part features a 16mm outer diameter with a 5mm stepper shaft insert and a 6mm threaded rod insert. ...For printing, set the layer height to 0.25mm and print with three shells, accompanied by an infill of 0.15 for optimal results.

To neatenly store extra ATX power cables in your Printrbot's ATX power supply, follow these steps with caution: 1. Unplug the power supply 2. Remove the 4 screws on the grey side of the power supply 3. Tuck wires inside the power supply, ensuring you...

For approximately $15, you can upgrade your Printrbot's Z-axis build area from 150mm to 250mm or even more by extending the extruder cords. To achieve this, buy two 3ft, 5/16in (8mm) threaded rods and replacement smooth rods from a hardware store for...

A software endstop issue in Printrboard firmware limited initial use of the full build surface, but after fixing it with help from printrbot.com support, I uploaded the corrected firmware using Atmel FLIP. Always use official printrboard sources from...

For Printrbot users with stock printers, minimal instructions involve printing an extruder-to-Bowden and a Bowden-to-hotend. Install Pneufit adapters onto the Bowden cable and attach it to the printed pieces. Extensive instructions are available for...
