Wrist Watch Print In Place Customizable

June 13, 2023
Description
Designed with a 0.4mm clearance between hinge segments
I recommend printing a test length before printing the full model
- Split the model into PARTS
- delete all but the last 3 links on the short end
- the last link is there to test the tightness of the clasp mechanism (it should unsnap easily after printing)
Print Instructions
- 0.12mm layer height
- 0.4mm nozzle dia
- PLA 205C 100% Fan
- I recommend Archimedean chords as the top and bottom layer pattern
- Orientate the model so it fits on the bed
- Split Model into PARTS (this will allow you do delete parts while keeping everything arranged)
- delete unneeded parts
- extra links from long end
- last “test” link from short end
- MMU insert if not needed
- NOTE: if printing blank face you can add your own custom text with Prusaslicer's custom text feature
- Right click model and select add part → text
- drag text where you want it and slice
Customization Instructions:
- MMU Insert: dia 28.4mm depth 2mm
- insert can be printed separately and press fit into face of watch
