Description
Updated Covered Version Available Here (Cat Defender): https://makerworld.com/en/models/907512#profileId-867813
*Note1: I made a version with optional lid based on a user request to keep their cats from accessing the ohh so tantalizing printer poops.
*Note2: I have also modified this file to match more closely to the covered (Cat Defender) version. That includes making it deeper to avoid buildup, and adding magnet pockets some users requested.
I wanted some changes to the other poop chute bins I found available online. This is my take on the poop chute bin. Printed in PETG.
CAD has 2.0 mm walls on the shell so it is sturdy. And features in the walls to stiffen the long flat faces.
I have included the native Solidworks, and a STEP export if you want to remix things for yourself.
Update1: I have added an optional / alternate version requested by a few users. It increased the rear depth, and increased the slope to the bottom to minimize the change of printer poops getting caught or jamming. It is located under the Raw Models in the “Requested Modifications” Folder.
Update2: I have added a few more alternate versions requested by some users. One is a high capacity version (The Super Pooper), The other is one for placing the printer on a 60mm riser block (Extra Hight). Both are located under the Raw Models in the “Requested Modifications” Folder.
Update3: I have added another alternate versions requested by a users. It is one compatible with the HULA antivibration feet. So it has a pocketed relief around the foot and is raised the required 23mm. It is located under the Raw Models in the “Requested Modifications” Folder.
Update4: I removed the original size version since others mention it can clog from time to time. So now there is a “Final” version. That has updates others have requested like changes to dimensions and optional magnets (see bill of materials below for magnet details). Future updates will be made to the Cat Defender version which is covered.
