Beytip

thingiverse

A replacement tip for your beyblade collection. The kids were fighting and crying and wailing and gnashing their teeth today when I got home from work. It seems that the 5 year old had lost the 7 year old's beyblade tips. Out of 5 beyblades, only one was tipped. That's 80% tiplessness with a high misery index. Hopefully when they wake up, the peace of the family abode can be restored by this $0.10 print. But if not, well, I'll be heading off to work. :) I can't believe this thing worked the first time. It has all the retaining ledges and little clippy ridges and stuff. It fit the beyblade without much cleanup at all. OK, I guess I should have searched thingiverse first, here is a similar project. http://www.thingiverse.com/thing:8327 . I'll have to try his designs too and see if they work on the kids beyblades. Instructions Print um, put it on the beyblade Why are you still here? If you print raftless like me and squash the bottom layer you may need to clean up the little squashed out parts on the bottom. I print 4 at a time using the multiply feature in skeinforge so that I don't have to worry about cooling between layers. I also use the zero extra shells trick as seen on Makerbot blog here http://www.makerbot.com/blog/2011/03/18/super-sweet-printing-tech-zero-extra-shells/ I'm done talking now OK, seriously now, go away! I'm sure there will be pressure to design new and better tips, now that the first design is in their grubby little hands. There that's an even ten instructions. That ought to be enough, right?
