Description

Current update: Beefed up snaps. New print orientation and new support type. Many trials for better supportrealease around snaps.

 

Previous update: version has reduced length of the left spoiler leg to avoid risk of interference and right leg is slightly shifted to the left

 

One design now for all versions of printers tested. Small snap hook to be gently flexed during installation.

 

To avoid damaging your clothes while extracing models or working on your machine I made these covers. Expecially on the X1C that creates some carbon debree sticking on the grease on the lead screws that are impossible to wash out. A spoiler is also integrated to the design at the bottom to ease cleaning out the cabinette.

 

No modifications needed.

Excellent model, excellent modeler, excellent job getting all the dimensions right. Yes, it is so needed. Almost every time I get my prints out, I get that black grease on me. One thing I like to change is to have the right side snap in place (And not ever unscrew the two screws). It would be great if the 2 screws and the 2 bumps have large openings. Untightning the two screws is not recommendable. See the picture. I did butcher it to make it fit flat. The front screw was not quite in line. Adding a recess or hole for the bump would be an improvement. Other than that, it's a remarkable job. Thanks

Hey @malkus, up late! The holes are in the right place, but the metal frame pushes it a little. the back nutch should go thru the top. I added a notch, and things got better. See pic. Both washers are under 8mm. The two bump seams to be glue-dropped to prevent any movement of the top plate. My X1-C is less than a month. It may be an update. See the pic. They are about 1~1.5mm above the surface. and to the edge. I would say ~8mm dia. This way it will be perfect like me LOL ;-) Thanks

Hey Malkus I think I lost my reply... Well, here it is again. The washers are under 8mm. The holes are in the right place, but I noticed the "Black frame " needed an opening on the top (See the picture). For the two bumps, it must be a weld or glue to stabilize the rod and "Z" screws and shaft. Probably an update. My X1-C is less than a month old. Thanks for the good work.

Just made a new version to upload with smaller radius. Thanks for feedback

A trick from the old guy. With ABS, usually, you can have as low as a 30-degree overhang. In my model, if a radius needs to be flat on the bed before I put a radius, I put a slight chamfer at 60 degrees, then add a large radius. See the picture. The radius can be as wide as almost touching the bottom and / or have a smaller chamfer. It also helps with the elephant's foot and scraping off the part.

Not sure if I did something wrong but everything fit in nicely after print but when the bed went all the way down the bottom part was in the way and cause the beds plastic to crack around the cutout for the screw.

It mounts fine but I think the bit that sticks out is too thick. I can't lower the bed currently as I'm printing but perhaps you can try that yourself?

When I import, why is the orientation such that there is a long overhang requiring supports? Would it be better to place the top surface in this photo on the bed?

The snap realease can get difficult with some filament from the support other wise

Replying to @Malkus :
the tree supports (manual) does not seem like a good idea here, The right piece has overhanging parts that span the entire length of the piece at the top, there is no way to print this correctly, Normal supports should've been seleted that provides support to the ENTIRE top section. The auto supports make much more sense as it supports the entire top section. The model is good, but supports definitely need to be tweaked for successful print.

First I heard of it. perhaps different tolerances with different brand filaments. will give it s bit more play then. thanks for feedback

problem solved. Simply break off the inside of the 2 small bars and it will fit.

Same problem for me. Also having some issues with the right guard not staying put. Any issues on your X1C with that Malkus? I also used ABS, so I'm wondering if the shrinkage was too large for the tolerances.

Is there anyone who has managed to fit this onto a P1P model? I was under the impression that the frames were identical, yet I'm struggling to attach the cover on the right side due to a metal component that is obstructing the alignment. The misalignment is approximately 3-5mm on the horizontal axis and roughly 10mm on the vertical axis, which seems to stem from the horizontal discrepancy. I have not tried the left side yet.

I've had to cut this part out for it to fit, it's exactly 3mm to remove in my case. Also I had to remove one teeth of the spoiler on the right for it to fit
