Description
I recently acquired a Record Power Coronet Herald Lathe, with which I am impressed, except for the feet on the tubular steel legs, which are simple rubber bump stops. These feet fit snugly around the base of the leg, without the need to remove the rubber bung foot supplied with the leg kit. The feet have an 8mm bolt hole and nut recess in the base for fixing in place (with an 8mm x 25mm bolt and nut (& washer) - I used A2 stainless).
I printed with Taulman Nylon 230 at 240ºC and glass bed with Elmer's washable purple glue at 45ºC. I use an Anycubic V5 hotend (converted to all metal) with 40W heater, and a 0.5mm nozzle, at a maximum volumetric flow of 6mm³/s.

On completion of print, the foot should release as the bed cools. Use one of the 8mm x 25mm bolts to push out the plug of support material in the hex nut recess.
