Bio
An old fart who only recently entered the world of CAD and 3D printing. It's been quite a steep learning curve, but a lot of fun.
I enjoy designing things for myself, and I'm bold enough to share them with others. My greatest satisfaction comes when someone else finds my creations useful and likes them ...

I would never have believed that such a tedious job as reconnecting the hotend connectors on my P1S could be so easy... and I wouldn't have believed that such a delicate part could be printed so that it works properly...
However, it seems that both are possible... printed from ASA (twice—the second time with a minor size correction), installed, and everything works perfectly... the original nightmare turned into simply plugging the connector into its place. From now on, I have no reason to hesitate when I want to replace the 0.4 nozzle with a larger 0.6 one for just one print.
I still can't believe it (I hope I haven't "jinxed it" :-) ... but HUGE THANKS to the author and a let me send well-deserved Boost.

Perfect model – printed from PETG, no problems whatsoever. Thanks! I like the large version so much that I'm currently printing a smaller version... and I'll probably print more – ideal as a Christmas gift.
Just a small note on some of the "complaints" here in the discussion that it's not airtight. Of course, it's not airtight in the true sense of the word... simply because it can't be - true airtightness would require a completely different solution... however, even as it is, it's "sufficiently airtight" for the purposes for which it is intended... normal household use. Of course, if you want to store deadly viruses or toxic chemicals, you should probably look elsewhere :-)
Finally, I have one question for the designer—purely out of curiosity—why is this model printed "By Object"? Does it have a specific purpose here?

Absolutely fantastic! I just added "variable level height" to solve the "layering" (I'm not sure what the correct term is) on the Alien's forehead (the 0.08 layer height just for this area helped quite a bit) and the Bambu Galaxy Nebulae filament took care of the rest (hid it) - it looks amazing. Many thanks to the designer for his excellent work...

Awesome, awesome... and... awesome again! :-) I just finished printing this model and I really don't have the words to describe how much I appreciate it. Not only is the model itself simply amazing, but it is also designed in such a way that it minimizes the necessary support to an absolute minimum, considering how large and complex it is. While other, much smaller and simpler models are full of ill-conceived details, here everything "fits" perfectly.
I printed from PLA (Dark Copper from Devil Filament) and used PETG for support. The entire model required only about 50 filament changes (and I had 3 layers of support interface).
Bravo... this designer can not only design great models, but could also train others on what a really good design should look like. If I had a Boost, I wouldn't hesitate for a second. Unfortunately, I don't. So at least this way - Thank you, Sir ... and 5*

A well-made model. It just needs a little bit of "love" = optimization in terms of the necessary support. Removing it was a bit of a struggle.
I even considered using PTEG for the Support Interface, but that would have been pure madness- more than 300 filament switches and more than 18 hours of printing. So I quickly abandoned that idea :-) ... as I said, such well-made model maybe deserves a little more care = optimization. However .. in the end ... the print is well done, the model is great... so 5*. Thanks !

This is simply amazing. I just printed and installed the version without bearings, and I'm so excited that I'm going to buy bearings for the better version :-) Congratulations to the designer for such a beautiful gadget :-)

Well, that was quite a ride :-) First, I want to thank the author for the great model. I chose it after much deliberation among many risers. And right from the start, I wanted to make just one small adjustment. But then another idea came along, and then another... I played around with it for a long time and it was fun... thanks again!
I added an extra box to the rear right corner to place a relay that switches the LED depending on the integrated light. To be honest, it doesn't work the way I wanted it to yet, but it will soon – it needs a different relay :-) In addition, the box is printed (and connected to the riser) separately, so it can be enlarged as needed and printed again at any time. The possibilities for additions are essentially unlimited :-)
I changed the switch cover mounting from screws (not very nice) to magnets. The extra box and front cover (more on that later) also have magnetic covers ..
.... < to be continued .. >

A little tricky to print—I use it as a handy and independent test, tweaking various settings for various ASA filaments from different manufacturers... printed whole day repeatedly ... now I have a whole box of ShortStacks, here... enough to last me a lifetime :-) It was fun. But everything is OK... installation was no problem, and ShortStack seems to be working... Thanks!

Perfect! I finally installed the recently printed model on my P1S, today. Great... everything works perfectly. Printing, assembly, installation... all without any problems. Hats off to the designer!
However, I couldn't resist trying to improve the model with a few details that I felt were missing - mainly better cable management. I added a holder/guide for the main cables and "clips" for routing the cable to the printer. Now nothing twists, sticks out ..
As a bonus, I added "FlexiGuards" for the PTFE hoses. Although they were designed mainly as a design element, they actually work pretty well - prevent hoses from bending sharply. Printed from PETG they are surprisingly flexible and durable.
If anyone is interested in FlexiGuards, they are here (https://makerworld.com/en/models/1893152-flexi-guard-ptfe-for-ams-hub-guide#profileId-2028158). I would also like to share my modified model (as a print profile here, of course) ... but I'm not sure if the "Digital License" allows it (?)

A beautiful model – even though I used it a little differently than the author originally intended. Instead of a candle inside, I used Bambu PLA Glow Green filament. I added extra base to the model to make it more stable and, as I printed this as a gift for my two grandsons (Tomas and Lukas), I placed the first letter of their names on it. The base is printed of Bambu PLA Galaxy Nebulae (an awesome filament).
Until the last moment, I had no idea how successful the print (almost 9 hours) would be, mainly because of all those overhangs and the supports ... In the end, it turned out better than expected - I used PETG for the support interface, and it works flawlessly. There was no problem removing it - it practically fell off by itself.

Bravo! What else can I say? There are many models on MW, but only a few real projects. And this isn't just an ordinary model of some kind of holder, this is a real project, a perfectly designed thing. Everything is almost perfect—the idea, the design, the execution, the printing... everything is 100%. And what's more, it's really useful. As a bonus, I was able to use the original printer legs, which I thought were useless :-) Bravo!
Printed from PLA - Bamboo Green and Black. Version for 6 boards - and since I only had 3 plates so far, I took the opportunity to order two more so that it's not so empty :-) Thanks to the author for the perfect model !!!
I would love to send Boost too, but I don't have any (I haven't received any new ones in weeks) ... so at least I appreciate it this way.

To be honest, I don't have that many magnets that I need a special organizer for them, but when I stumbled upon this model, I liked it so much that I just had to print it out :-) I even used the exact same color combo - black and orange. Now my magnets have a better place to live than I do :-)) Very nice model!

It looks like the perfect solution to protect my hands from hot water when washing the build plate. Thanks for that. I could just use a version for Cryogrip/Glacier... maybe the author will find the time and mood for another model :-)

Printed from ASA, it looks very good. However only practice will tell how effectively it will work - I believe in it :-) Anyway I appreciate the designer's work—very nice design, printing without problems, fit also OK. Thanks!

I wanted a "poop cover" for my P1S and had already picked one out ... then I luckily discovered this model and it was a clear "no-brainer"... printed this ... perfect... prints without any problems, fits perfectly, looks good (the design matches the Z covers from the Akelyte). Printed from PETG (that's why it's green), if it proves itself (and I think it will) and if necessary (I don't think so), I'll reprint it from ASA (orange stuff in my printer). Thanks for the great model !

I haven't installed it in the printer yet (waiting for carbon). But printed (ASA) already, no problems, looks 100%, great... thanks for the model!
