Description
Another Gridfinity tray, to hold a Starrett 98-8 sensitive level in 1x6 squares. As kind of an afterthought, I decided to make an optional dust cover for this. I tried to make the cover relatively light to save on material. Like my other Gridfinity models, the base is altered to accept 6x3 magnets as a press fit, with the upper surface of the magnet holes modified to make the slicer bridge across correctly for a clean result. Due to the size of this model, I have included sacrificial “mouse ears” in the CAD to give the ends more surface area to help prevent them warping off the bed. These will need to be removed after printing.
The parts pictured were printed out of Polymaker dual color matte PLA on my Bear upgraded Mk3S+, using a 0.6mm nozzle, at 0.3mm layer height. I may re-print it in a solid color later on, because I really don't like the way the 2 color stuff looks. Polymaker threw it in with my last order for free and I am just trying to use it up. Not sure why they thought that a guy ordering black ASA by the 5 kilo spool would want this stuff, but whatever.
