Experimenting with PLA today. I have a large industrial upright deep freeze that has been in the family for longer than I have been alive! Long story short it had a dial with a knob on it.
Note the 'had'.
Upon looking for things to do a few weeks ago, my Mother pointed that same fact out to me. Apparently at some point during the three different moves it has made in its life it had lost the little knob, and noone knew what it looked like anymore.
Cupcake To The Rescue!
I took measurements last night, came up with a preliminary design in sketchup, and promptly exported it wrong and didnt notice until the outline was already down.
...Oh well! Something to run in the background while I made asthetic design adjustments. As soon as that print finished the next started. And after THAT print finished, I take it over to the freezer and...D'oh! Forgot to compensate, my models are usually 1.5~2mm smaller when they come from sketchup! Fix the holes, print, It Fits!
But...
Its Ultimachine Green! Thats not good at all! Print another! Make Sure it fits! Sand it! Prime it! Paint it! GOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOAAAAAAAAALLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLL!
