thingiverse

This thing is an extruder motor 'windmill' using Slice Engineering's official graphics files. It is intended for personal, non-commercial use. Enjoy. In addition to windmill parts: - 8mm diameter x 3mm tall magnet - Crazy glue of some type - Printed magnet aligner ('MagAlign' included here) Printing: - First layer, set up extruders to print the letters and logo first, then the disc - Best on flat print bed, not textured - If printing MagAlign piece at same time, use disc color/extruder - The 'e' is a separate file as I had to kern the 'ce' manually to match the logo - Place all disc objects in slicer then rotate 180 degrees x or y to print - Magnet alignment tool can be placed and printed as-is Assembly: - Place MagAlign on surface with spokes down - Press in magnet in center circle flush with surface - Magnet should stick up inside about 2mm - Place windmill disc face down on surface - Flip over MagAlign and pre-fit over disc, then remove - Apply a small drop of glue to center of raised part on disc - Place/Press MagAlign w/magnet onto disc - Let dry according to glue directions - Remove MagAlign and place windmill on extruder Note: If you chose to use Disc.3mf it was saved using PrusaSlicer 2.0.0
