Description
I dropped the catch cup for my evoluo. The dumb little hook broke off. I printed another one.
In the picture, the top is the OEM, the bottom is the FDM.
There are two versions of this file, one that is all one piece and one that is three pieces. When I printed as all one piece the hooks broke off along the layer lines. rather than reorient the entire print and waste a bunch of support material, I parted it out to reorient the hooks and used acetone glue post process.
The original was made of GF Nylon, I made my replacement of straight ABS. It has been in use for a few weeks with no issues. If it starts to sag I might re-print with a fiber reinforced filament, but I'll wait until/if it's broken before I fix it again.
