It is an improved version of this:http://www.thingiverse.com/thing:288823 Source in openSCAD so you can alter dimensions. Demonstration video here:http://youtu.be/HnI0M1igDow Instructions HOW TO PRINT Base and mounting plate print without support. The slider must be printed with the slider surface on a smooth surface (eg. ikea mirror) so it must be printed with support. I was having printer problems with my prints so the top side finish is bad. It should print ok with 0.3mm layers, 20% honeycomb infill. PARTS LIST 2 M5x20mm Bolt 6 M5 washers 4 M5 Nuts 1 M625 Bolt 1 M6 washer 1* M6 Locknut 25mm Hose Gaffer tape for attaching hose to vacuum cleaner (should print something better) USING SCAD SOURCE The source is split across three modules. Rod, mounting and slider. The K8200_rod.scad file should go in the library directory "../K8200_rod.scad". It is a modification of the original K8200_rod avaialble here:http://www.thingiverse.com/thing:247948 WARNING If you use a plastic hose with a ribbed texture then it will make the nastiest screeching sound as the air flows through it. Wear some kind of ear defenders. I got a little tinnitus from running it for 10 seconds.
