Description
Press for inserts.
The dimensions are such that you can print on a Prusa MKx, Creality K1 and K1max.
Use a filament with good mechanical strength such as PETg.
The post must be printed lying groove face down, do not skip the number of walls 7 to 8, no support. Layer 0.2mm.
The beam is printed vertically with brim, moderate the speed to prevent it from coming off the plate. (Créé par Steve Johnsen https://www.printables.com/fr/model/230788-2020-t-slot-bar-like-aluminum-extrusion/files)
An adjustment allows you to vary the lower stop position.
A spring returns the carriage to the high position.
When it comes to the rotary knob, you have the choice on Printable.com, so you can add your personal touch.
For owners of a larger deck you can adapt the size of the post to this one.
There are similare objects on the market, if you don't want to print you can buy one.
