Hello , I have same lathe g4003 and I want to update with quick change tool and wich series you have it’s 100 or 200 series? And witch tool bit you use 1/2 (12mm) or 3/8(10mm) or smaller? Thank you

That's cool! I wish there was a way to do this with ABS/ASA, if I made this with those materials and HIPS for the sacrificial core, I think they would fuse together.
@DominicVictoria3 ай бұрын
I do this using ABS. I also usually stick a magnet on the core to keep it in place. But I only do this as a last resort. I would probably just split that in half and extend the screws you’re using to the back. But you’re right. I haven’t really seen this on KZfaq. This a handy trick. It also leaves a perfect surface finish. Even on the top side of that bridge.
@Legg993 ай бұрын
An excellent idea, one I'm sure I'll try at some point. Thanks for sharing. If I can add two suggestions for something you are going to use regularly. 1: Embed one or two thin magnetics in the core so it holds it's self down and 2: Add a couple of 'T' extensions at the narrow end that extend beyond the end of the main body, then it can't slide back and forth. But Hey it works great as it is!

Sounds like alot of "babysitting"!!! 😬 Why not instead us a UV Resin printer and print multiples with the base of the plate on edge attached to the print plate? 🤔 Heck! You could even use a translucent resin an backlight it with a Bi-Color Green/Red to indicate the enabled/disabled status of the machine circuitry?!

@dev-debug3 ай бұрын
Pretty cool technique, not sure I have seen a reusable core done on 3d printer before but I have seen nuts and magnets inserted mid print so they get encased in the print. I have an DD IDEX printer I built so I usually just use a different material as the support or PVA if it's a complex PLA print. Depends on how many copies you're making I guess. If i't just a few your way is great but if I had to do a lot I'd probably split just the model in half to avoid supports and screw or solvent weld the two halfs together when done. Sadly no maker spaces near me to join, yours looks really nice, quite the setup you have.

When bridging across the 2.25" wide area the PLA must be able to stick down at least a little. Otherwise it would peal up and make a mess out of the second layer.

I've seen people use PETG as support material for PLA but never as a reusable core. That's really clever! Thanks for showing this off. I'll definitely remember it next time I'm in a similar situation since I hate cleaning supports.

I've already heard of using PETG supports for PLA or vice-versa, printing them with the AMS, but this is an interesting spin. The advantages are that it can copy the bed texture and the core is re-usable. I'd like to share my own idea (though, as you said, someone else might have already invented it). We could print supports of the same material, leaving a .2mm gap. Pause the print at the last layer before the gap, lay down painters tape on the gap, then resume the print. It's not practical for this shape, as you'd have to crop it and align it precisely, but perhaps there are other situations where it could be handy. I wanted to do this with a filament that was very sticky (PETG?) and couldn't make break-away supports work. They would either not come apart with a small gap or leave a terrible surface with a large one, as it was effectively printing in air. I cancelled the project, so I didn't get to try it.

@qiou293 ай бұрын
I was thinking if a multihead printer like the prusaXL could be a good move to use here. But the bed temps for PETG and PLA are diferent, and on a textured plate the PETG can slip out of it's place if the bed is not 80°C
@chrisgulotta3 ай бұрын
Why not print the front facing section in black? You can even add the text in white. Then it would look more like the original design.
@truegret77783 ай бұрын
Thanks! Great tip. I have used PETG as a support filament on relatively simple models, and it separates from PLA cleanly. However, it is a pain with a single nozzle system. Your method has helped me see the models a little differently, so now I design support blocks where I can, print with PETG, then print the model, pause the print, slide in the PETG support. It works really well.

Great idea! But I have had great luck using PETG as support material for PLA (or vice-a-versa) as you mentioned they don't stick together when printing and they just pull apart after printing. Easy to do with a multi-material AMS system.

can you add a .25° or .5° draft on the sides so your core will slide out easier ?
@steve318k3 ай бұрын
9:52 If your finished part can afford it , you could add a small locator tab / indentation in one side of the actual part (Y direction) & a mating feature in the core (maybe a semi circle or triangle) , it would make the core self locating (no tape needed) and foolproof on which surface is up. Love the concept very much though, I'm going to have to try it !!

Have you considered using embedded magnets to hold the core to the build plate? If you're making many parts that would speed the process up, and make it less fiddly. Using sets of magnets might also let you build up stacked cores at different levels to make complex cavities.
