You will find it here: http://bit.ly/2OVbu5Z Tips: - Make sure that Your printer is calibrated well before printing. - Do not fix syringes too tight because glass will bend a little and it will create a lot of friction inside. - Pistons must be polished with fine sandpaper to move freely inside cylinders, but without losing too much pressure. - Angle between the cranks must be 90 degrees.
