3D printerama or why I need to stop cluttering up other threads

Oh and if anyone is curious someone is commercially making really nice vents already.

^^This post is a bit amusing. I was walking by the grey coupe yesterday and had one of those quick thoughts of "I should look into getting a set of vents for that".

 

Maybe I shouldn't have quit that job after all.

Even with the rear slider window.

Not as cool as redeyes current project but recently got some new steering wheels and mounted them on nrg quick release hubs that won't fit the horn button so made up some delete plugs today to hide the ugly wires and hole

First project that was actually successful and this is the end of the first week of my owning a printer

I love my Ender 3 V2. I bought it specifically to make parts for datsuns!

[Dguy210]

Just because. Still have to print out a couple other bits for it and paint it. Note: the text looks way better in real life.

Took like 20hrs to print. I'm really really tempted to make a silicone mold to cast these in resin.

 

This is actually the second version, tried printing the two part one first and the warping made the bits not fit together nicely. I tried using the model Ordnance lab used at first and it just looks not as nice with the seam.

Datsun related. Prototype screw in funnel copied from one I saw for sale. Printed in PETG which is supposedly OIL resistant.

 

Fits KA, but not Z or L series (same thread but it is very tight as the L uses deeper thread root and very slightly smaller barrel). Should fit SR20 and RB too I guess. I dug out an old A series cover and I'm going to redesign the end to fit (much larger so easy to do off this model, this should also fit early L series covers).
