Extruder Gear Medley

thingiverse

I borrowed two extruder gear designs ( http://www.thingiverse.com/thing:10538 and http://www.thingiverse.com/thing:13286 ) and use plater.py (included with pronterface) to make a plate with 4 large and 4 small extruder gears so I could have some spares. I repaired it with netfabb basic, but I think there were errors in the original files that netfabb couldn't handle. Slic3r didn't complain though. Instructions Print with 1 perimeter (zero extra shells) to minimize gaps and 100% fill for strength. I printed mine with short lengths of scrap PLA filament, adding pieces by hand as each ran out. (I also printed it too fast to do without cooling because I used slic3r and have no fan because it stopped working and I usually print ABS.)
