Navage saline pod bypass

Boost MeYOU CAN DO IT ! ! !

I have waited to post this for a while, it was a lot of trial and error for something that seems so simple. Please only try this if you feel comfortable/confident with the installation it can be difficult manipulating this into place.  Also the tolerances between my Navage and yours may be different, please take that under consideration before downloading, printing and or installing, it just may not work for you. All you can do is try it and see if it works on yours.  Although I have tested this for months different filaments, printers, environments, etc. could all play a factor with the success of this bypass. With all this said i am confident that it works from trials and usage on my machine (if this does not work for you I do have options at this point and you can message me for files although it does require using CA glue on your machine, I am currently using this method on mine for testing purposes and I feel this will be the print i will be using from here on out). I wanted a device that lasted longer then the silicone ones on amazon and something that stays in place without having to replace it every use. Please only print in orientation provided to keep strength up.  So far it seems standard PLA works just fine the filament you use needs to be as rigid as possible with little to no flex.

After printing verify orientation to your device and use pictures as reference. use the jig provided to help install tab on to bypass, it is a very tight fit and while using the jig you can press it all into place easier. once assembled take bypass and slide it into place using pictures as reference (you have to kinda of slide it under and between to get it into place). once you get it basically into place you will need to snap it in, this can be the hard part. I put one of the hooks in place and force the other to snap in place (everything is a very tight fit), make sure it is firmly in place and has no play. once this is done you can use your Navage without saline pods and mix your own saline packets and leave it in place until you need to replace it (I have been using saline packs by fire ant). 

After you have used your Navage and go to store it do not leave lid down (only leave down while in use), leave only in full upright position other wise you will loose the strength/tension of the bypass and will have to print another sooner, since it will stretch the print due to pressure from Navage. You will need to be replace/reprint after a while depending on usage, I thought by printing several at once and using when needed would be a good idea but i have found out it looses integrity while sitting so i would only print when needed to replace. 

When removing the bypass use the small tabs and try and squeeze them together to manipulate the bypass out, then replace as necessary. The 2 different build plates are identical only one has the jig in-case you do not want to keep printing the jig.
