Dguy210 Posted December 22, 2015 Author Report Share Posted December 22, 2015 Good use for a gun lock Exactly, it's the crappy lock that came with the Mauser I bought like 10 years ago. Commifornia requires all guns sold come with a lock, so they usually come with the cheapest locks you can find. Quote Link to comment

MicroMachinery Posted December 23, 2015 Report Share Posted December 23, 2015 My two two boys (4.5 and 6) keep getting into the fridge and making a mess or eating at times they shouldn't. I have 2 of those somewhere on my property.Might be time to remove the gun lock.. 1 Quote Link to comment

Makes sense, all of my handguns have come with manufacturer ones. I only knew Cali had a specific law for it. 1 Quote Link to comment

Dguy210 Posted June 19, 2016 Author Report Share Posted June 19, 2016 http://www.thingiverse.com/thing:618340 that is badass right there ^ Neat, but looks like a total pain to print. Those are rubber normally, right? 1 Quote Link to comment
Lockleaf Posted June 19, 2016 Report Share Posted June 19, 2016 Yeah, but it wouldn't matter if that piece were hard if the pipe were flexible. assuming it's the correct size etc, it's a genius retrofit that only requires an easily obtainable 2" diameter piece of duct hose to connect to the original defroster vents. Why would it be a pain to print? I don't know much about 3d printing. I would have thought if a printer was big enough to print a thing, you could print it just by pushing go once the model was built. how does it work in reality? 2 Quote Link to comment

I would have thought if a printer was big enough to print a thing, you could print it just by pushing go once the model was built. how does it work in reality? For the hobbyist level stuff there is still quite a lot of finicky things required to get good prints, for small simple stuff it is not to far off from print and go, big or complex prints are a different story. There are some part shapes that just are difficult, anything with overhangs requires support usually or some careful planning on orientation etc... Also, those need to be made out of abs but are big and hollow. They don't need to be kept to tight tolerance or resolution so that is a plus. But you probably need at least a raft or they will likely come off the print bed, as the contact area is small. Big abs prints without a good footprint and with overhangs take a long time to print and tend to have a high failure rate, and will likely need some post processing cleanup. 1 Quote Link to comment
Lockleaf Posted June 20, 2016 Report Share Posted June 20, 2016 Interesting. Thanks for the reply. So in theory, if you were to add a panel to the bottom of the shape, would that resolve the footprint issues? Make it maybe a popout plate like the stock radio filler panel? Make the base extend all the way out as far as the overhang, then add vertical sprues from that extended base plate up to the overhang. Where would be the best place for sprues? Halfway up the overhang? Out toward the edge of the overhang? Both? I realize that these would require post printing finish work to remove them competely, but perhaps they could be designed to snap off relatively easily? Would these ideas work, or are they unusable or based on misunderstanding the issues and equipment? 1 Quote Link to comment

They can add the supports to the model as easy snap off versions in the places needed, and the raft is the name for the panel at the bottom. 1 Quote Link to comment

Lockleaf Posted July 1, 2016 Report Share Posted July 1, 2016 I am not sure if anyone would be interested in this, but I just posted to GrabCad a .STL file for a 240z map light bezel. I modeled this last year when I had my 240z and never got around to posting it up. There are pictures as well on the page: https://grabcad.com/library/240z-map-light-bezel-1 I do not have any pictures of it installed unfortunately. If anyone prints it out and installs it, post up some pics! 1 Quote Link to comment
